Java of the Dead is intended to be a celebration of Java and the possibility of a new chance, even if it means being an undead Zombie!
You may interpret that in any fun way you wish, mixing Zombies, the undead, vampires and voodoo, Java and coffee – in any order and concentration you desire!
Tools
The game is to be written in Java for Pokitto, submissions will be judged on Pokitto hardware and on Pokitto emulator.
Java programming Pokitto is made possible by FemtoIDE by Felipe Manga, which you can download and install free of charge.
FemtoIDE also incorporates a Pokitto Emulator, meaning you can program and participate in the compo – even if you do not yet have a Pokitto!
