Feedback and sugestions

General

A great start to a project. In addition to the things you've noted in your TO DO list it would be great ot see the following.

Thanks :) After being away for a month I never really got back to this app, mostly because I didn't want to change all the stuff to C++ in order to use various libraries for drawing menus and stuff. Will be back to be more active soon as holidays approach :) --drei000 20:10, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
Add a GUI

Ability to do the following through a GUI:

-Resume
-Pause
-Reset (takes everything back to the state it was in when WiiLife started)
-Clear
-View controls
-Return to Loader
-Reboot Wii
Have to check out the state of the menudrawing lib, hope I can use one and don't have to do all that stuff by myself :) Especially rule editing is what I had in mind for the menu--drei000 20:10, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
Options for drawing
  • Ability to draw in different modes:
-Add cells
-Remove cells
-Toggle cells (toggles on to off and off to on with each click)
The stamp thing sounds like a really nice addition :)--drei000 20:10, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
Options for display
  • Ability to change the background colour / colour of cells
  • Ability to add/remove gridlines (maybe only show gridlines once a certain level of zoom has been reached)
