Propo

Propo P-symbol

Introduction

Propo is a little visual game written in Java 2.

When the program runs it shows a window divided into two areas (area A and area B). In area A, the program shows a geometric configuration of black dots, lines and circles with one red dot. In area B, the same configuration is shown slightly scaled with the red dot removed. The idea of the program is to click on the location of the red dot in area B. The top row of the window shows some statistics. It also shows a happy face if the last click was correct, a sad face, if it was not, and a face with sunglasses if the last click was a "bull's eye".

After completing 50 exercises your game will be added to the highscore list if your score was a highscore.

The below pictures shows some pictures of the program running. (Click on the pictures to enlarge them.)
