Make a clone of a popular classic game (Tetris, Galaga, Dig Dug, etc.)

Longer Challenges:

A minecraft like voxel engine!
That would be pretty damn cool. :)

Challenges that may take longer or shorter, depending on which one you pick:

If you want smaller but very rewarding challenges, I suggest reimplementing parts of demos (as in demo scene).
That way you can learn a lot about graphic and audio programming.
You can find a lot of demos on this website:
http://www.pouet.net/

Very few of the demos are even open source.

Novice Challenges:

Small things I did in löve an had a lot of fun with:
- A cellular automata in a hexgrid (enable activating/deactivating of single hexes by mouse)
- A 8bit-16bit piano
- Julia sets
- Simple 3D

Other small things that should be relatively easy:
- Snake, Tetris, and other old games (Unless you make such a nicely polished version with many more features like Slime did)
- reimplementing some simple screensavers



That's all I can think of for now... I hope there's something of interest for you ;)

I have decided that I'm going to make a piano.
Maybe I'll make some tunes :D

if you use any loops. Only use repeat loops.
