Description
(E)
Tic-tac-toe is both a very simple and widely known game that has kept countless children from falling asleep during boring classes. The idea of this project is to design and implement a tic-tac-to activity that allows two children to play against each other via the X0-1's Mesh network. (At least initially no single-player mode will be included.) Apart from the final activity the project's goal is also to kick-start game and activity development at OLPC Austria. Given that the game is currently scheduled to be developed during our first GameJam we also consider this a trial-run of how such events can be organized and hosted. All in all we hope to learn many valuable lessons from this experience so we can apply them to future projects.

Tic-tac-toe ist vermutlich eines der bekanntesten und am weitesten verbreiteten Spiele und es hat schon vielen Schülern in so manchen langweiligen Schulstunden begleitet. Die Idee und das Ziel dieses Projekts ist es eine Tic-Tac-Toe Activity zu schreiben, die es 2 Kindern erlaubt über das Mesh-Netzwerk des X0-1 gegeneinander zu spielen. Eine weitere Zielsetzung abgesehen von der eigentlichen Activity ist es mit die Spiele-Entwicklung von OLPC Austria durchzustarten. Es geht dabei vor allem um die Sammlung von Erfahrung bei der Entwicklung von Spielen und auch um die konkrete organisatorische Umsetzung von GameJams und ähnlichen Verantstaltungen.
