Homebrew RELEASE Press The Button: A PyNX Game

[tomGER]

Press The Button / Hit The Button is a game written to test the PyNX Controller features.

In this game you have to press the shown button as fast as possible and the challenge is that the time you have to press the button gets shorter and shorter with every turn.

Installation:
PyNX v0.5+ is REQUIRED

PyNX v0.5+:

1. Extract the files
2. Drop the extracted folder (switch) into the root of your sd-card
3. You should now have a folder called HitTheButton inside your ./switch/ folder
4. Launch PyNX and select HitTheButton

Future Goals:

- Multiplayer (Possible, I'm just lazy)
- Music (Currently not yet possible)
- Images (Currently not yet possible)
- Wonderful GUI (Currently not yet possible)
- Split the game into different background tasks to make it more fluid (Currently not yet possible)

Great, I like reflex games. I'll test it on 4.1.0 in a minute.

Yup, my Switch is also on 4.1 so I'd appreciate it if somebody on != 4.1 could test it

I might test on 5.0.2 if I am able to use my switch later today. Someone else will probably test first though.

Feel free to look at t.py or ask in the PyNX Discord if you want to make one with Python

This game is the best thing that ever happened to the Switch scene; it's so sad to see it hoarded by @tomGER like a dragon sleeping on its hoard of gold
