Desktop Repeat
                      ---------------------
                       Desk Accessory Game

You've probably played it a hundred times before. But never quite 
like this!

Call it what you want, it still boils down to the dumb old game of 
"follow the sequence of colours". The ST will present colours to 
you one at a time. Each time the computer shows the sequence of 
colours, you must match them from the keyboard exactly! (R=Red 
G=Green B=Blue and Y=Yellow) The sequence is repeated after every 
correct try, only with one more colour added to the end. 

Now that I have you completely confused, it's time for an example...

               Screen starts at black, game begins

                       COMPUTER SHOWS GREEN

              player hits G (for Green) on keyboard

                COMPUTER SHOWS GREEN AND THEN RED

                     player hits G and then R

             COMPUTER SHOWS GREEN THEN RED THEN BLUE

                   player hits G then R Then B

       COMPUTER SHOWS GREEN THEN RED THEN BLUE THEN YELLOW

      player hits G then R then B then screws up and hits R!

       COMPUTER MAKES A DISGUSTING SOUND AND THE GAME ENDS

                    Boy, sounds like fun, eh?

Each colour is presented with its own distinct tone. Every time 
you complete a correct sequence, the ST will sound a 
congratulatory bleep and then repeat the sequence, plus one more. 
If you enter a colour incorrectly, you will lose and get the 
raspberry sound! You will then be shown the number of correctly 
completed sequences.

It gets better...
             1. The colours come faster and faster as the game 
                progresses.

             2. If you don't press a key quick enough, you will 
                lose the game.


All this excitement takes place right on the old GEM desktop! Yup, 
icons, windows, mouse and all! You can even play Desktop Repeat 
within running programs (as long as they use the GEM interface and 
background colour).

I've never been past level 12.
(My cat can walk on the keyboard and go past level 12!)
