Mr. Spiff's Revenge is a PC video game title that we entered into the 2008 Dr. Dobb's Challenge after two weeks of development. We ended up taking home the top prize, "Best Windows Game"! 

Since then, we have been steadily building on the game making a large number of changes to the gameplay, asset tweaks and a few performance enhancements. I'm proud to announce that we have finally completed the update to the game!

The set of changes is really too long to enumerate, so to keep things simple, download the game (attached below), check it out and give us feedback on the forums! We would love to hear from you.

Please note, you'll need to update DirectX to the latest version to run the game. Do so here.

To run the game, download the zip file and extract it to a convenient location using a program such as 7-Zip. Open the extracted folder and run the executable named "MrSpiffsRevenge.exe".

Enjoy and be sure to tell us what you think!

Mr. Spiff's Revenge relies heavily on the $1 Gesture Recognizer developed by researchers at the University of Washington and Microsoft Research. See all of our references here.

Check out our postmortem, wallpaper, and audio file downloads for the game.
