I’ve made a simple non-game program called Tacky Turtle. Basically, it’s a virtual machine that runs randomly generated programs (any combinations of symbols is a valid program), and the program controls a turtle which leaves a trail behind it.
The program’s memory is a ‘tape’ which you can see on the right of the screen.
Click ‘Play’ and then ‘Randomize’.
Here’s a YouTube video of it in action:
