Welcome to Challenge #2

Code-A-Sketch


We all (or at least most of us) know what an Etch-A-Sketch is, if you don't then here's a video of one in action:

Now your challenge for today is to recreate the etch-a-sketch in application form, this can be done in any coding language you wish and can be either a desktop app or web app. The etch-a-sketch works by turning two knobs which control where the "pen" is and moves on the screen, one knob moves the pen horizontally and the other moves it vertically and you use both knobs to create an image on the screen.

The only condition for this contest is that the user must not be allowed to use their mouse or finger to draw on the screen, you could have two knobs to realistically make your app like an etch-a-sketch or you can use the arrow keys on a keyboard.



Rules for this contest:
1 Entry per person
Must not be allowed to use mouse or finger to draw. Only knobs, click-able buttons or arrow keys are permitted for interaction.

50 Crazy point bonus and a guaranteed prize for ALL qualifying entries!

Have fun and I can't wait to see your entries on this one cooll;

That's exactly the point of an Etch-A-Sketch lol

You move the pointer up and down and left and right and a trail follows it. Your drawing ends up being one continuous line. Hours and hours of childhood memories right there

Edit: The picture Cody posted is misleading. - 50 points to him!

Edit again: Here's my entry. Use W, A, S, D to draw, click "Clear" to clear the image cooll;

No time to explain. Here's my entry. Took me a little more than 2 hours to make. And I started building it when it was my bed time :p So I'm already 2 hours late for bed.

Controls are the arrow keys and enter for reset. No time for screenshot, sorry.
