I'm toying around with a graphical game app I wrote a couple years ago in VB. The game is sort of a tetris/bubble-style game and everyone I've given the game to gets caught up in it. I've resurrected the app since I ordered the book “Managed DirectX 9 Kick Start“ that I blogged about earlier.
Then a thought hit me. What if I made the game a library that throws up a form and allows the game to be played. People could take the library and put it in their apps as an easter egg. I could control the amount of customization (naming, functions available, etc.) throught the class interface. I was thinking about adding some animations using DirectX, but maybe I'd keep it a simple GDI+ based drawing application to keep runtime requirements absolutely minimized.
I think this would be kind of cool, or is that just me? Does anyone know of people who currently provide easter egg apps?
