This is a collection of silly little puzzle games you can play in your terminal that are themed around the hacking scenes found in big Hollywood movies.
This was a project I undertook a number of years ago to practice Python. It's here for posterity; I probably won't be updating it.
To install the game launcher from git, install uv and run:
uv tool install --from git+https://github.com/lostatc/skiddie-games skiddie
Alternatively, you can run the launcher ad-hoc without installing it:
uvx --from git+https://github.com/lostatc/skiddie-games skiddie-games
To uninstall:
uv tool uninstall skiddie
To play the games in this collection, there's a TUI launcher. The launcher lets
you configure the difficulty and save high scores. Just run skiddie-games
.
You can use Up
, Down
, and Tab
to navigate, Enter
to select, and q
to
quit.
There's also a CLI. For more information, run skiddie-games --help
.
