May do something with this eventually... just an example.

I like it. What comes to mind when you brainstorm the project?

A few things:

1) Was thinking about using something like this in a scrolling 1-player tank game (and would have up to 2 tank enemies on screen - maybe a U.F.O. like a top-down version of battlezone, except with rocks that the shots could ricochet off of like in combat).

2) When I originally saw Zeta, I thought a similar deep-sea exploration game with playfield scrolling would be fun.

3) I also like the idea of a shark and giant squid hunting game.

It might be a while before I get time to work on any though.

Just remember that scrolling takes a lot of cycles. You should use 'debug cyclescore' to find out how many you are using.
