Slingo: Twiki Gems

Notes

The original infrastructure for this game requires signing in with a proprietary account. This infrastructure also accounted for server-based multiplayer games.In order to make the game playable, and after studying the interactions between all relevant components in the infrastructure, a special HTML file named “main.html”, placed in the same directory as the front-facing SWF, was created to embed the game and allow the user to select one of the originally available challenges.To play the game properly, the following procedure must be followed: 1. Choose the type of challenge that will be undertaken, by selecting an option from the corresponding dropdown listbox. 2. Please let the Flash file load completely! Trying to start the game before the SWF loads will not make it start, and the “Start game!” button will disable by design. In order to attempt again, you must refresh the page or press the “Restart game!” button. 3. Once the game is properly loaded and configured, press the “Start game!” button, and the game will start. At this time, the “Start game!” button and all the configuration fields will disable. You may play now. 4. At any time, you may restart fresh by either clicking the “Restart game!” button or refreshing the page. After that, you may return to step 1 if you wish to play another session. 5. Once a game session is over, by clicking the “Play again” in-game button, the screen will darken and you may return to step 1 to choose another challenge type.If the game starts behaving erratically (the game won’t start), refresh the page.
