CSS Clicker Training: Making games in a "styling" language

Lyra Rebane

Playlists: '39c3' videos starting here / audio

CSS is a programming language, and you can make games in it. Let's install NoScript and make some together!

This talk is about how HTML and CSS can be used to make interactive art and games, without using any JS or server-side code.

I'll explain some of the classic Cohost CSS Crimes, how I made [CSS Clicker](https://lyra.horse/css-clicker/), and what's next for the CSS scene.

I hope this talk will teach and/or inspire you to make cool stuff of your own!
