Here's a game which I had the concept for a long time ago. I tried making this when I was just starting out with bB, but I've just recently redid it using only 2k.

Gameplay:
Dodge the food coming at you. If you touch
a food, your stomach grows bigger. You get
one point for each group of food you let
pass to the other side. The game ends when
your stomach gets to the other side of the
screen.

That is pretty creative! Pretty ingenious to use the playfield for the stomach (I think that is what you are doing- didn't look at code). Nice ice cream and mcdonalds fries, etc. I like the sound effect too!

Even though it would take the game in a completely different direction, it might be cool to reuse the sprites and create a "Tapper" ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapper ) type game where you have to serve fast food, etc. to people.

Neat!

Would you buy this if it was in the store, and if not, what would you change? I'd really like a 2k game in the AA store because there isn't one in there yet.

I can't speak for what sells or wouldn't in the AA store. You might want to contact someone from AA and see what they think. (Or maybe they can reply to this thread.)

I've got a small cosmetic problem I'd like solved. Seems as though CTRLPF=$05 isn't doing its job partly. What is up with this?
