Horse Drawing Tycoon - The World's Best Horse Drawing Simulator

JSConf via YouTube

Overview

Explore the hilarious journey of creating "Horse Drawing Tycoon," the world's only horse drawing simulator, in this entertaining 22-minute conference talk from JSConf EU 2015. Dive into the 1000 lines of JavaScript and two weeks of drunken after-work coding that brought this wonderfully terrible idea to life. Discover the implementation of Canvas, Twitter integration, the legendary HorseHash™ algorithm, HorseCurrency™, and HorseStamps®. Learn how a joke at a local VanJS meetup evolved into a fully-fledged, albeit ridiculous, tycoon game where players draw horses indefinitely. Get ready for an edge-of-your-seat presentation that showcases the power of turning absurd ideas into reality through creative coding and a healthy dose of humor.
