It is allowed to have pause keys, or various other menu and option settings being turned off and on with any key or mousebutton you want.

However, once ingame, you should only be able to:
Pause
Quit/Bring up the menu

Nope, no limits, as long as each entry follow the rules you can make hundreds of them Tongue

It adds to making original and inventive games. With clicks you could write an entire FPS, or RTS game. Which is not where the challenge is intented to go..

I still wonder how nobody came with the easiest game to do with just mouse movement - it's a very, very popular game.

I'll try to code something simple this afternoon.

I have one that clarita coded a tad ago, I dunno if she released it. It is in QB + Future.LIB and uses sound so nobody will be able to play it :lol:

I dunno if I feel like porting it to fB, it uses the JPEG loader from A.Gual and AFAIK he hasn't finished his port yet.

But it was played only with mouse movements, no clicky, and was pretty funny. And simple.
