Sweet. Are "isL()" and "isR()" the shoulder buttons? Any hints on which keyboard keys connect to which signals? Is the difference with SimpleJoy just that you will be able to modify it easily for the Pandora hardware? Is USB controller support unique to SimpleJoy? (I guess I should try it out...

Poke, I sure understand about working, so this is less a request and more a word of encouragement! I'm looking forward to the next release with the controller buttons support incorporated. I'm making good progress on my next game, "Panic Attack". Basically all I have left is to set up the...

Poke, Here are a few little updates for the framework. I changed: StateTitle.h/.cpp Use variables[7] to store the timestamp each time the user comes to the menu. This means a new timestamp is NOT stored when using the SelectionBox, but it is when you return to the main menu afterwards...

Wow -- too cool. I'm looking forward to trying this out!

Poke, I've implemented levels as a static member in my game's class. Unfortunately, a static member is just that -- it doesn't get reset except on initial game load. I can lose my game several times, enter my initials on the scoreboard, start the game again, and continue on the next level...

Looks great, Wes! As I recall, the Nokia (e.g., N800) had a dedicated button for switching between full-screen and windowing. I thought that was a pretty smart feature. I don't know if there are any buttons left on the Pandora that could be reserved for such a purpose, but it might be a...

Ahh, the joys of volunteer endeavours! Improvements are welcome! Personally, I appreciate the simplicity of the current icons (though I agree there might still be a few rough edges to smooth out). They're exactly what I asked for. But mine isn't the only opinion that matters here! Also...

Look great. As you say, I was thinking of a lighter gray. But this is plenty good enough for me to get to work. We can see how they turn out and consider changing them later. Thanks! Miggles -- you may not feel like it's your greatest work, but it obviously met the "good enough" principle...

I think those alternate versions sounds like a perfect plan. Here's my interpretation of a "sprite sheet": You'll notice that each icon is centered in a cell which measures 65x32. Perhaps you could add the alternate buttons forms as a second line (meaning another 650x32 for a total image size...

TheBrainSquid: Thanks. Those are looking pretty good. I'll try to put some code together this weekend & we can tidy things up more later if need be. Looking at Image.cpp, I'm guessing here that a tilesheet is a single png holding all the images? Each image is held in a rectangle the same size...

These are awesome. I'll try to write a simple little library for them. Something along the lines of "display(icon, position, duration)"? It might be nice to have a further effect to draw attention to them. Maybe not so dramatic as the whole thing blinking, but perhaps little motion lines...

This looks fabulous to me!

Personally, I thought that button from OneButtonBandit was perfect. It was shaped like the actual button, legible, demure colors: What do we need? A/B/X/Y Up/Down/Left/Right arrows Left shoulder, Right shoulder (differently shaped?) That sounds like a good start!

The British usage is always superior. :ph34r:

FWIW, BadVista, once I find a willing musician, will provide its own losing music. It might be desirable to have a way that a minigame could specify its own winning/losing music or even specify none. Edit: While I'm spouting off ideas of work for other people to do :D I thought I'd mention a...

Wow! I downloaded the new setup: it looks and sounds great! (Yes, the sounds now work for me... maybe something to do with upgrading to the new Ubuntu release last night? Who knows?) Thanks to many, especially Poke, for all your work. I had to adjust a couple things to get it to...
