Special Challenge

Recode


This month we're doing a rerun of a very old challenge... (two years old?? crazy...) I've been on the fence about repeating special challenges, but we've had so many new members since we last ran this one and seeing the improvement is always so cool! ( •̀ ω •́ )y

So, November's challenge is to remake one of your existing codes - preferably one you made a while back. It can be your very first code, but it doesn't need to be. Just choose one that you feel could use some polishing!

Your recode should keep some elements from the original, but they don't have to be visually similar - as you can see in my submission from the first recode challenge: Original vs Recode. :')
This is generally a more freeform prompt, so go wild!

If you're a very new coder, you can still participate! When you're starting out you're probably learning a lot of new things, and remaking a very recent code can still lead to big improvements. Feel free to try it out - you may be surprised at how much you've improved in a relatively short time! :)

However - if you've just started coding and don't feel like recreating something you made very recently, you're allowed to make an alternate version of one of your existing codes instead. This could be an extended version, a user version of a character code, a matching folder code... you name it. As long as the new code is visually similar the original, you can submit this for the challenge instead!

The Challenge:

  • Remake one of your old codes!
  • Alternatively, you can make an alternate version of one of your codes.

You may not...

  • Frankenstein, copy or take heavy inspiration from other coders. All code should be your own.

Your posted code should link back to this challenge - it can simply be linked in a text block above the preview.

You can't earn bonus points on this challenge.


Submissions will close on November 25th.
