CS Bridge | Hole Puncher

This example lets you treat your computer like a piece of paper and your mouse like a hole puncher. The user should be able to click anywhere on the window and create holes (ovals).

The constant HOLE_RADIUS describes the radius of each hole you will punch. 10 is a good size for this.
