This is a game which offers practice and competitive play with Multiplication Tables! It has some quirky artwork and keeps track of score.
It has some bugs (noted in the code) and needs serious improvement.
- WARNING * Some testers have found that the logo is cooler than the actual game.
- FAILS * The last time I tried this, it no longer works (probably due to updates in shoes code). No time to fix it right now, I wish there was a way to remove it from the-shoebox.
Speak now or forever hold your peace:
Yo Tim, for the images, unless they need to be served online for dynamic reasons, you can pack them into a .shy file with your rb, then distribute the shy file.
Use my shymaker to make shymaking easy. :) put the images in a folder with your rb file, or in a subfolder like “images”, and then refer to them relatively: like “image.jpg”, or ”./image.jpg” or “images/image.jpg” or ”./images/image.jpg” (whichever form works the best for you).
Thanks, Jesse,
I have followed your good advice, as you can see above.
Appears to be a copy of the class-book.rb sample??
I know this will sound incredibly harsh, but the only nice thing about this application is the logo here on the-shoebox.org. (It is a very nice logo, by the way.)
Tanuki – no not a copy.
Azrael – I’m glad you liked the logo. Admittedly it is a very simple app and not even finished properly. It’s kind of Ironic that the logo is better than the app. Maybe I should have a disclaimer.
Probably due to changes in shoes, this no longer works.
they need to them relatively:.
My server is not working right now, so the images won’t load. Please wait to try out Multiply.
