I took a look at Galaga. Nice! I used to play it in my college days. Steve would say, "Huh, how good could Pete have been? He only needed 3 college days to become a chiropractor!" Well, Steve is still trying to get his tractor beam started, so what does he know? Anyway, we should all pool our talents into making a time machine, go back to 1979, and make billions. I know Terry has dibs on PacMan, but I'd be happy coding Star Master and/or Omega Race. Anyone remember those?

It's not entirely original as I've seen games of similar "drop this on things without knocking them over" concepts before - no idea where but they're definitely around.
I love remaking the good old games. Scramble is the other one I've done in QB64pe - that was a big fave of mine back in the day. Terry's PacMan is excellent. I might recreate New Rally X when I have my next QB64pe splurge (which will probably be some time next year). Do I take it that you've got a Star Master or Omega Race repro in the making or is that strictly for after one of us has created that pesky time machine?
