Does anyone know of a Linux game for infants that would do something visual and audible on each different keypress? Like always roll a ball across the screen with a little ditty each time Z is pressed?
My kid loves to sit and hit keys on the living room computer keyboard, it would be great if he can see something happening other than the complete foobar'ing of my mythtv.
If not, I think this would be a great idea for pre-toddlers, and I may program something myself.
A card punching machine at my Dad's office was great fun when I was a kid. 80 characters, and we were glad to have them!
More seriously, something using SDL can work in full screen mode, helpful to avoid oopses. If you end up writing your own, the PyGame Python bindings are really easy to use.
