Small (but complete!) Game

Hey guys, I've written a little game I called Smiled Out as a test of my lastest version of dusty engine.

The game is a clone of the old "Lights Out" game I'm sure many of you have played.

Here is a screenshot:

You use the arrow keys to move the "cursor" around and the space bar to toggle a face from a smiley face to a mad face or from a mad face to a smiley. But be warned, toggling a face will also toggle its neighbors! Try to get all the faces turned into happy smileys.

The project was written entirely in Dev-C++ with Irrlicht 0.8 and Dusty Engine 6.1. Complete sources are included (though please forgive lack of comments in the source, I apologize but hopefully it's self-documenting)

Let me know what you think!

Can anyone beat this game? I've only beaten it once, and I made it! There's a little ending animation when you beat it. Any tips?

It's a fun game.

Great work.

But it is difficult, I played for 10 minutes and the best I got is one mad face left...
Is it possible to remove all the mad faces??

It should be possible to beat, I have beaten it once. But I've been getting a lot of reports about people getting it down to only 1 face, I'm afraid I may have some mathematical problem with how many starting faces there are?

Yay, fun game, took me about 5 minutes to get them all to smileys!

screenshot to prove it!

And I don't think it's too hard, just beat it again in 20 seconds!

I really couldn't expain it, I don't think. I just just try to get it so that all the mad faces are only in a single corner. Then set them up, so that they will end up like -

0-happy X-mad

Code: Select all

O O X X
O O O X
O O O O 
O O O O
