hey all, ive had some spare time while at uni and got a bit bored so i made this little game, some of you may have even had this when you were a kid
Screen Shots:
[attachment=1061:2013-03-13_10.09.16.png]
How To Play:
1: Click The Play Button
2: Once the flashing of the colors stops
3: repeat the pattern of colors by clicking each color
4: if correct you will level up and another colored will be added to the sequence.
simple to run just put it on the advanced computer and run the file

This is quite cool. But I would call it more of a remembering game :P/>
Found a bug:
Clicking the middle white box/egg thing scores you a point instantly and continues the game

Same :P/>
It would be nice to have more colours, but I guess there are limitations.

Hmm… nothing much you could really add to this game.
Maybe difficulties? Easy would have longer time for when the colours 'flash' where as hard would be short.

Or when you're in CCemu you can just click anywhere except the computer and the score will also go up.

a way to quit would be nice, perhaps a quit button next to the play button between games? Also, you should really make playButton loop properly (with the drawing code inside the loop, instead of before) and just exit from playGame instead of calling playButton again, as currently you're piling the stack with playButton->playGame->playButton->playGame->playButton->etc, which would eventually overflow if you left it running and kept playing long enough. Particularly given there's no way to exit currently, using os.pullEvent instead of os.pullEventRaw so that you can ctrl-t out of it would be nice.
Otherwise, very nice, used to love that game as a kid :)/>

Yea, don't want to run in to stack overflow problems.
