A collection of funny command line games written in Java

commandlineGames

Sometimes, I find myself being bored often looking for some quick and nice games that don't take long. On the other hand, I am a bit of a nerd and like the spirit of the command line. Then again, I am not nerdy enough to use Linux and I found only very few command line games for windows.

That's why I decided one night to start this collection of small mini console games in java and thus compatible with Windows, Mac and Linux.

Currently available mini games

Incorrect calculation of rate in ButtonPusher

The prompt explaining how ButtonPusher works states that the time to push buttons is one minute. The actual duration is only ten seconds, though.
Still, the calculation for the rate of pushed buttons per second still uses 60 seconds as the duration and the amount of button pushes is divided by 60 (seconds) which leads to a wrong result.

This problem can either be fixed by actually setting the time to wait to one minute/60 seconds or by adjusting the calculation.
