• RTS programming game where you write real C++ code to control your player.

  This idea seems similar to screeps, robocode, battle-code, and to a lesser extent, Neural MMO. Source: over 1 year ago

• RTS programming game where you write real C++ code to control your player.

  Looks cool! Reminds me of robocode. Source: over 1 year ago

• Any coding game accessible with Go?

  I found https://robocode.sourceforge.io/ in Java, https://screeps.com/ in JavaScript (WASM from Golang seems not to work), and https://leekwars.com/ had its own language…. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Why has the Bot Battle genre been so neglected over the years?

  You had to write the intelligence of a robot/tank in a C-like language of these game development software. The bottom line is two of these programs competed against each other. If I remember correctly these battles took place in a recurring tournament and you could win a license of the game developement software, or maybe nothing. The only one I found in a 2-minute search that is similar to this is Robocode... Source: about 2 years ago

• Battleship

  One of the first incantations of this idea that I encountered, when I had just started working at my first corporate job back in the day, was Robocode ( https://robocode.sourceforge.io/ ) - it was great fun, and I see it's still going. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• I am stuck!

  Have you heard of CheckIO (https://checkio.org/)? They have a gameified "Mario world" of coding challenges that are smaller and come with more explanation, tests to guide you through edge cases and provide hints. The challenges start from total beginner and progress to more advanced. And best of all, after you solve a problem they show you what other people do. I highly recommend this for you. Also consider... Source: 5 months ago

• I feel like I may not be smart enough to get into the cybersecurity space

  Cyber isn't gonna be a light switch, where you can flip it and be good. Don't be too hard on yourself. Start with some hands on stuff like https://tryhackme.com or checkio.org. You could look at certs like Security+ or CySA+ for some direction. It took me years to get into cybersecurity, and I still don't feel like I know anything. Source: 10 months ago

• I need some advice to learn Python.

  Much better to get your hands dirty than watching the videos. Try: https://checkio.org/. Source: 11 months ago

• Where can i test my knowledge?

  When I was first learning python I like using https://checkio.org/ Checkio provides programming problems in a gamified environment. After you have solved a problem you can see how others have solved the problem. This really accelerated my learning. Source: 12 months ago

• Projects for beginners

  Look at checkio.org. Range of problems to solve ('missions') When you do you can see how others solved them too which ids very instructive. Source: 12 months ago
