Java Games Programming has been offered twice here at Maryville College, and each of the 25 students who has taken the course has written approximately half a dozen games. This page contains only a small collection of these games, selected to showcase both the variety and the creativity of the accomplishments of these students.
IMPORTANT: You must have a Java-enabled browser to run the games.
  • Breakout. This game was written by Brandon Aaby in the fall of '06. It's an extremely well-done implementation of the classic Breakout game.
  • Tetris. Jesse Smith wrote this Tetris game in the fall of '06.
  • Mazerace. Briley Hooper wrote a maze race game in fall '06.
  • Save the Tomatoes. This game was written by Andrew Masterson in the fall of '04. It's his personal implementation of a popular game by the same name, with his own creative features.
  • Mastermind. Lauren Sipe wrote this Mastermind game in the fall of '06.
  • Minesweeper. Khaled Chikhaoui wrote this game in the fall of '06. It's an implementation of the classic Microsoft Minesweeper game.
  • Apprentice Concentration. This game was written by Matt Cogburn in the fall of '04. The assignment was to write a "memory" game, and Matt came up with this very creative "Apprentice" theme. Speakers are required for the full effect of this game!
  • Music Memory. This game was written by Casey Davis in the fall of '06. The assignment was to write a "memory" game, and although there is already an example above of a memory game, Casey's idea was completely different; he had the innovative idea of having the player match music instead of images. You need to have your speakers on!

  • Ninja. Kevin Bailey wrote this Ninja game in the fall of '06.
