Digital game concept... thought of something like kill the mosquitoes. haha~ have a few of them at home lately and got quite irritated with getting bitten here n there so that's where my idea came from.

Will incorporate elements of digital play such as immediate feedback, computer as the moderator, and makes use of just clicking the mouse and also eye, hands coordination. Imagine a screen flying with mosquitoes... sometimes just one or two... sometimes in small groups and sometimes in swarms. The "mouse" will control 2 hands which will move in relation to the movement of the mouse and will clap their hands when the mouse is clicked. The clapping is the same action as what we usually do when we slap mosquitoes so there's a direct mapping... the aim of the game is to slap down as many mosquitoes as possible within the given time limit.
the game idea and mechanics is actually very simple so it shouldnt be a problem for people to learn how to play without reading any instructions.

Dont think this will be easy to implement in non-digital format as it seems almost impossible to have a swarm of mosquitoes appearing at the same time n buzzing in different directions... But this is still just the initial idea... still pending more improvements =)
