Something simple. I think you should, I'd like to see it. Just mess about. Then make a game. A simple game, like space invaders. Can you do an opening page to your site? Something simple.

Not sure how long it took Ferebee to make his game (a good couple of months though), but its tougher than the one I was envisaging. I was meaning the original space invaders, where you've got a spaceship which moves horizontally along the bottom, and a about 5 rows of five spaceships, slowly moving down the screen shooting. The wee guy at the bottom gets to hide behind stuff. Its easier because theres no maths involved in the whole jumping business - both spaceships move from left to right. Look on <a href="http://www.flashkit.com/">Flash kit"</a> for some game tutorials. You can get fairly simple ones.

But you were looking on sideways, which made it different. I liked it cos I was good at it. ;-) Planetoid was one of the coolest games ever (on the BBC)You skimmed the surface of a planet shooting up attacking aliens.
