Mad Clickr (Simon) in Adobe Air

Adobe Air is a way to run web applications on your desktop while proving a means, for the web developer, to control the local system (Play sounds, write to files etc).  Anyway I wanted to give this new gadget a try, I have to say I wasn’t impressed with the technology.  I have been writing web applications for desktop use long before Adobe Air, and while Air does give you access to some areas of the system a web app would not normally have I didn’t find it to be an earth shattering development like Adobe would have you think.

Anyway, I wrote this Simon like game to give the technology a spin.  By no means is this a great game mind you (it even looks a little cheesy, like it belongs in the 70′s [doh]).  But without further adue here is Mad Clickr.  (If nothing more you can take it apart and look at the JS)
