paritally editable exercises

[gdkrmr]

I cannot find the game any more but there was/is a javascript game where you have to escape a dungeon by editing javascript. The dungeon and the player's and enemies' movements are all javascript that is readable and partially editable by the player, sometimes you have to edit the dungeon layout and sometimes the movement of the player to escape.

The cool part is that you can see the entire code that generates the dungeon and the movement but you can only edit a few lines the rest of the code is static.

This would allow to make a function and you could force the user to only fill a specific argument or to only edit a single variable in a script. Being able to constrain a script this way would allow for much more complex exercises where the student has to understand some given code.
