This is my first webOS application. I initially started working on it as a learning experience, but once I got the JavaScript port working, I couldn't stop! I feel as though the game has reached a point where I can release it (it's playable, and is sort-of webOS-ified).

How to play

Pressing one of the lights will toggle it and the four lights adjacent to it on and off. (Diagonal neighbors are not affected.) The game provides a puzzle: to switch all the lights off, preferably in as few button presses as possible.

Known Issues

To Do



Add help scene (with game play instructions)
Add high scores/leaderboard
Move difficulty selector
Remove header
New icon
Name change?
Improve button graphic
Implement random game mode
