Paint Wars at CodeMash

One of our engineers, Chris Marinos, has some interesting content to discuss at CodeMash: Paint Wars.

Paint Wars is a game that Chris some of his classmates wrote for a senior project at the University of Michigan. The original game was written in C#.

There is a purpose in bringing Paint Wars to CodeMash: Chris and Mike Woelmer have been working on re-writing Paint Wars in F#. The plan was to understand how F# might provide better support for some of the computing needs for a game. Also, was F# a more productive environment? If so, for everything, or for only some tasks?

Chris will be blogging about what they learned during this process. If you want to learn more in the meantime, visit us at CodeMash.

If you want to learn why we feel this was time well spent, Anne Marsan said it best here.
