The objective of the game is to make the picture on the left match the picture on the right in the time limit(4 minutes). However there is a twist, you must choose one "handy cap" (you only get one). You move the grey square with the arrow keys and when you move the grey square into a coloured tile, they change places. There are a total of 5 10 x 10 pictures that are randomly chosen and jumbled up. There are 4 handy caps:

Shuffle - every 30 seconds the picture shifts to the right by one
Flash Light - you may only see squares that are adjacent to the grey square.
Half Time- you have half the time to complete the picture
Backwards Controls - The controls are reversed

By the way, the game is supposed to run at about 20 fps. Have fun :)

Note: the project was written in C++ with sfml 2.0 on windows 7, so it only works on windows. If you would like to compile it on your mac or linux machine so I can upload it to the site email me at Mathew_bergen(at)yahoo.ca.

How does it follow the theme? You get only one handicap? It was a fun little thing to try out though. I almost got the 1/2 time one.

Yes that fact that you get one handy cap is how I used the theme. I probably should have explained that a bit more. I didn't want to do something boring like one minute or one day or one bullet. I thought this was a bit more original.

Your idea is something, Everyone is different and everyone has there own idea. Despite that good effort.

It's a original way to deal with the theme. Good job!

It says in the description of the game it will only work on widows.

I'm not sure that I want to play this game twice. And this is exactly what you mean: "You only get one gameplay before you deadly bore"

I don't understand "You only get one gameplay before you deadly bore", and what do you mean "And this is exactly what you mean"?

Brilliant! I tried flashlight and half time, couldn't finish with neither of them, but had lots of fun and thrills :)
Loved the "move by swap" mechanic!

If you release the source code, I can at least try to compile this for my platform.

Wine's msvcp110.dll doesn't work, and Microsoft's msvcp110.dll doesn't work either.
