I mostly wrote this app for my own enjoyment, but I'm happy to share it with android users around the world. I decided on purpose not to support touch screen because I wanted it to be as awkward to draw with as the real toy. I am not trying to write a good drawing program here, I am emulating a quite bad toy from my childhood :) If I did add touch support it would only be emulating the trackball but with the disadvantage that you can't see what you're drawing, so it's all pointless. I would only do it if multi-touch was supported and then I'd emulate the turning of the knobs, but sadly that is not an option with the current hardware that runs Android.

You can now save, load and share your Sketch-a-Etch creations, just press menu (but that is technically cheating). You should really only load in images created by sketch-a-etch but it will let you load other pics but that is seriously cheating :)
