Wiimote Laser Tag

via carlkenner

I made a GlovePIE Skirmish game that you can play away from the computer.

You need:
* Two wireless sensor bars (or TV remotes or candles or whatever generates infra-red). Each person must wear one on their body somewhere so it won't fall off or break if they run around.
* Two Wii remotes
* One reasonably fast computer with Windows and a Bluetooth adapter with the two wiimotes connected.
* GlovePIE 0.29
* a friend
* A space where you can run around and shoot at each other, that is in range.
* The following GlovePIE script.

Instructions:

Each player puts on their wireless "sensor bar" and switches it on, and they pick up their connected wiimote. Then they press "Run" on the script. Then it will warn you that you have 10 seconds before the game will start. So run and get into position.

After the 5 seconds your weapon will start to charge up. When your weapon is charging it will beep five times then make a sound and vibrate which indicates that it is ready. Also the LEDs will come on one at a time while it is charging.

The lights on your weapon will be on when your weapon is charged and ready to fire. You can also check whether you are player 1 or player 2 by holding the A button. Or you can check player 1's score by holding the 1 button, or you can check player 2's score by holding the 2 button. It stops counting once it gets to 10.

You can shoot with the B button. The default maximum firing rate is five rounds per second, but you can change that at the top of the script. It will make a sound and vibrate when you shoot. If you hit the opponent then their remote will make a loud noise and power down for 7 seconds. Their weapon will beep very quietly while it charges up again. They can't shoot during that time, and they can't be shot again either.

The score will also be shown in the debug box on the screen, if you don't want to check it with the 1 or 2 button.

What a great idea. Reading that put a great stupid grin on my face.
