Or any game like that (EG bowling). I have an idea, but will I get counted off if I use ascii graphics? I wanna make a pure-text entry, and I suck at GFX.

For those of you that don't know, that pic is a link... I found that out on accident. Fun game! I like the idea, but you should do a small remake that is like space invadors. Really nice gravity effect going there.

Can it use only ONE KEY (ex. accepts SPACE but not G) or can I use any key? (ex. accepts q,w,e,r,t,y,u,i....)
