Beat challenge 1 (download the game, change the code) here. Then beat challenge 2. First five to beat challenge 3 win $10,000 USD each. No joke.
Challenge 1
This is the first of three challenges for The Last Slice: A retro 8-bit video game that’s currently impossible to beat. Clone or download the code, install the prerequisites on your Windows 10 PC, open TheLastSlice.sln file with Visual Studio and run the game. You have the source code…change it any way you’d like to beat the game.
The Prerequisites
Here’s what you’ll need to get started:
- A Windows 10 PC
- Install Visual Studio 2017
- Install MonoGame 3.6
- Install Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 Update 4
After installing the prerequisites find and open TheLastSlice.sln file with Visual Studio, and run the game.
The Problem
The Last Slice retro video game is fun to play, but impossible to beat as coded. You won’t beat this challenge with just gamer skills. Break out your development skills, change the code and find a way to win the game. The possibilities are endless, and you have the source code…so what’s next is up to you.
The Reward
Solving this challenge gives you instant access to challenge 2, and you’ll be one step closer to being one of five lucky participants that could win $10,000 USD.
But hurry – to be eligible to compete in the third and final challenge, you’ll need to solve both this challenge and challenge 2 before midnight UTC on July 17, 2018.
