recogs

Haskell/SDL based image-recognition-game for people suffering from dementia

External dependencies:

• libsdl
• libsdl-image
• libsdl-gfx

How to start

• recogs --help shows command line parameters
• the file recogs.cnf contains every configuration parameter (except --file to select a configuration file)

How to play

• Space => show one more tip
• Backspace => hide the last tip
• Enter => reveal the whole image or proceed to the next image (if image is revealed)
• m => reshuffle the revealed positions
• Escape = quit the game

Next steps:

• Harden against missing files (maybe cleanup of imagelist...)
• Clean up code... a little more!
• learn something along the way ;o)
• find a nice way to show a 'help' screen in game explaining how to play (keybindings)

hanks to the nice and well written comments on reddit to improve this!
