BabySmash
|
||||
=========
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
The BabySmash game for small kids.
|
||||
|
||||
As babies or children smash on the keyboard, colored shapes, letters and numbers appear on the screen and are voiced to help breed familiarization.
|
||||
|
||||
Baby Smash will lock out the Windows Key, as well as Ctrl-Esc and Alt-Tab so your baby won't likely exit the application, rotate your monitor display, and so on. Pressing ALT-F4 will exit the application and Shift-Ctrl-Alt-O brings up the options dialog.
|
||||
|
||||
Originally developed by Scott Hanselman, based on AlphaBaby. The version here contains some enhancements, but the original version is also available: http://www.hanselman.com/babysmash/
|
||||
|
||||
## Enhancements
|
||||
This version of BabySmash includes at least the following enhancements over the original:
|
||||
* Keypad typing now register as numbers typed, just like the number row.
|
||||
* Bug fixes, including cleaner shutdown.
|
||||
* Improved sound handling.
|
||||
* Ovals are added to the roster of shapes (including Circle, Heart, Hexagon, Rectangle, Square, Star, Trapezoid, Triangle), letters, and numbers.
|
||||
|
||||
## AutoHotkey
|
||||
Used in conjunction with a tool like AutoHotkey, you can essentially create a "baby lock hotkey" so you can baby-proof your PC inputs at a moment's notice, with this immersive application instead of just the boring Windows Lock Screen. To set up:
|
||||
* Download and install, if you don't already have it. Available for free at: http://www.autohotkey.com/
|
||||
* Run AutoHotkey; for the first time, it will prompt if you want to edit the script. You do.
|
||||
* If the script is not open, right-click the AutoHotkey taskbar icon (an 'H' icon) and select 'Edit This Script'.
|
||||
* Choose and a hotkey. Avoid relying on the Windows key, as it will be held while BabySmash starts and may be buggy when you exit BabySmash due to the way the key is intercepted. I like to Control+Shift+Z.
|
||||
* Code the hotkey. If you're using Control+Shift+Z, you can add "^+z::Run D:\GIT\babysmash\bin\Release\BabySmash.exe" right after the line "#z::Run www.autohotkey.com" (without quotes); Obviously your path to BabySmash.exe will vary depending on where you installed or built the code.
|
||||
* Save the file and close your text editor.
|
||||
* Right-click the AutoHotkey taskbar, and select 'Reload This Script'.
|
||||
* Try out your new hotkey to make sure it works. If not, go back to 'Edit This Script' and try again.
