LytsOut
« on: November 01, 2011, 04:59:27 pm »
First: The name is spelled this way because LIGHTSOUT is 9 chars and programs must be 8 chars
Second: This is a Grammer program

So pretty much, this is a spinoff of the classic Lights Out game. With this version, you select a location with the cursor and by pressing enter, you invert the location as well as those around it. The goal is to color the whole board black.

Things I can add:
Turning the board one color is a win (all black or all white)
Adding a score (The board is made in 17 steps, so this will grade based on best time)
Adding a highscore
Adding difficulties (larger playing board, for example, or a block that doesn't change)

So what do y'all think? I should also note that the program is currently 352 bytes

Controls:
Enter inverts surrounding blocks
Clear exits the program
Arrows move the cursor

It sounds very addicting :D
You should make it really hard and make like 15 to 20 levels.
And achievements and timers
I know it's not what you said you could add, but it would be much better :D
EDIT: +1 for you XD

What do you mean you don't know how to make different levels?
It seems like you alrdy made 2 in the screenshot.
Or do you mean that's the maximum you can make?
Also, what about the achievements part?

looks like a nice game.

If you are going to do a larger board, it might be easyer too see of how much squares a large area with a single color is.
My projects
 - The Lost Survivors (Unreal Engine) ACTIVE [GameCommandoSquad main project]
 - Oxo, with single-calc multiplayer and AI (axe) RELEASED (screenshot) (topic)
 - An android version of oxo (java)  ACTIVE
 - A 3D collision detection library (axe) RELEASED! (topic)(screenshot)(more recent screenshot)(screenshot of it being used in a tilemapper)
Spoiler For inactive:
- A first person shooter with a polygon-based 3d engine. (z80, will probably be recoded in axe using GLib) ON HOLD (screenshot)
 - A java MORPG. (pc) DEEP COMA(read more)(screenshot)
 - a minecraft game in axe DEAD (source code available)
 - a 3D racing game (axe) ON HOLD (outdated screenshot of asm version)

No, I didn't see that, but I didn't really think too hard on the name XD

I am not sure I understand... Do you mean if I have an 8x8 board, check to see if a 5x5 region is all one color or something?

D: Why don't you like it? D:
I guess I could add a feature that uses premade playing boards. Hopefully when I have time to work on this, I will add that XD
