Re: Lites Out! - My Free WVGA Game

Micah, thanks for the feedback.

This is a clone of a hand held game made by Tiger Electronics back in 1995.
I had that game and really enjoyed it.

I really tried to match the colors - the original game had purplish-blue buttons that when lit turned purplish-pink. I even tried to make it look like there is a little light bulb underneath the lit button. The purple and yellow buttons at the bottom (Reset, Exit) also follow the original color scheme. I consider myself to be graphically challenged, and can barely draw a stick person. But, I did draw all of the graphics for the game. I think it is acceptable.

As far as the sounds - those too are original. The multi-tone beeps at the beginning and the beeps for each button press are the actual sounds played by the original game. (or as close to them as I could make them) The startup sound can definitely be surprising if your volume is turned up. Maybe I will make a preference to disable that sound in a future version.
