[APP]SensorMaze - a little game
I wrote this little program, called SensorMaze. It generates mazes and allows you to steer a little blue dot using the movement sensors in the HTC Diamond. It is based on the original SensorTest program and since it has been a while since I programmed for any PDA, it is a bit simple.
Usage:
Try to send the blue dot to the red dot by tilting your Diamond in the required directions.
Commands:
- New Maze: create a new maze in the same level
- Next Level: increase the complexity.
As mentioned, it is my first attempt, so there is still some work that needs to be done.
TODO:
- Implement timer, so you can compete against yourself
- remove the "Position" text and replace with timer output
- MessageBox instead of Dialog ?
- Replace the blue dot with a "ball" like structure
- Release the source code (after cleaning it a bit more)
Question:
When I try to use MessageBox from my code, the MessageBox fails to close and I can never get back to the Shell without a reset. Any one any idea what I could be doing wrong here ?
Changes ( 07-Aug-2008)
- Replaced the target with a cheese and the moving dot with a mouse icon.
- Added some text to show the current level.
- Initial level is lowered, so that kids could play it too.
Screenshots are provided in the attached .png files. I also added the sources, so that other people can see how you can use the acceleration meter

donation to Koushik.
After all it is thanks to his (and the many other developers) work and readiness to share it that I can write these programs. I (currently) still get enough satisfaction in writing these programs.
