Whack A Mole Game

A whack a mole game for the Corsair K95 and K70 RGB keyboard for Windows, written in C# .Net.

While only tested on the K95 RGB, there's a high possibility of working with others as well.

This is based on the following C# projects: https://github.com/billism1/KeyboardAudio https://github.com/MythicManiac/Keyboard-Minigames

What is it

This is a simple whack a mole game built on top of this project: https://github.com/billism1/KeyboardAudio and https://github.com/MythicManiac/Keyboard-Minigames

Basically it turns your keyboard into a whack a mole game, see video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mX1pq3OQ80s

You can get a version you can install here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8Xuq5ZfTn-8ajNmVWVPTnpGMFk/view?usp=sharing

How to use

To start the game, turn off your Corsair Utility Engine, and launch the executable.

To stop the game, just close the window, or hit esc.

If your keyboard derps out and won't take input / lights are frozen, just unplug and replug the USB cables and it should work again.

Notes

I never intended to release this at all, so the source might have some silly things lying all over the place.

If you choose to clone this and use for your own purposes, you might want to clean this up a bit.
