I lost code for a minigame and can't find it ANYWHERE!

Backstory: A year ago, I found code for this click style minigame. I really wanted to use it for my VN because it was something interesting. I saved the code somewhere, but within that year I changed computers and moved overseas. I thought I transferred everything from my old computer, but I was wrong. I've been searching high and low for the code (even using a VPN) but still no luck.
Minigame description: The game contains two main parts- the randomized imagebutton that when you click it, it'll change position; and the imagebutton background that, when clicked, the game is over and you lose. You had to click the moving imagebutton a certain amount of times to win but if you didn't click the right amount of times or accidentally clicked the background you lost.
Question: Can someone help me find this code that has seemed to vanish off the face of the internet?

Might it be any of the games listed in this thread?

Thank you for responding!
Yes, I have. Some games come close but aren't the exact one I was looking for. Any of the click and point games that are listed are too complex for what I'm going for and wouldn't fit well with the theme of my game. I don't want a minigame that feels put in for the sake of having a minigame. The places I'll be putting the minigame in are for times when you're fighting an evil spirit. It's almost like "whack-a-mole" I guess, is what I'm going for.

Shouldn't be too hard to code, maybe this helps/gives you an idea?
Code: Select all
define e = Character("Eileen")
# define your images
image background_clicker:
Solid ("#0000ff")
image foreground_clicker:
Solid ("#fff")
size (400,350)
# define your transforms
transform clicker_move:
choice:
# just left and right
xalign 0.0 yalign 0.5
block:
ease 2.0 xalign 1.0
ease 2.0 xalign 0.0
repeat
choice:
# moving around the edge
xalign 0.0 yalign 0.0
block:
ease 2.0 xalign 1.0
ease 1.5 yalign 1.0
ease 1.5 xalign 0.0

ease 1.3 xalign 1.0 yalign 1.0
ease 1.0 xalign 0.0

repeat
# simple screen
screen mini_clicker():
# the background button
imagebutton:
idle "background_clicker"
action Return("Failed")
imagebutton at clicker_move:
focus_mask True
idle "foreground_clicker"
action Return ("Success")
# The game starts here.
label start:
e "Click on the white, moving square."
call screen mini_clicker
# remember the return var is "_return"
e "[_return]"
jump start

Thank you! I will try it out and let you know how it goes. I will eventually need to have it keep track of if the person failed or not, so I can have different dialogue for the outcome.

And I thought you wanted to point out that it's not a square at all, because 50 pixels are missing
Joking asside, how about this then?
