Some of the more venerable monks may remember the old BBS doorgame "Food Fight". I am interested in remaking Food Fight as a browser-game. Armed with no knowledge of perl, I am diving head first into this project.
First of all, is this project feasible?
I am more than willing to learn perl, but I would like to use this project as a learning tool.
When I learned other languages (PHP, C++, Java) I always chose a project to work on, so I could see how each element of the language relates to a functioning program.
I am looking for (a) monk(s) to be a guru for me while I learn and create.
