I'm using a TV capture card so I can play the Yaroze on my PC instead of a seperate TV (since I can't get another TV setup in here easily). Being as I haven't used this Yaroze in the past for all these years it is good as new. So... my plans for my first game on the Yaroze: I want to make a simple 2d game that has some colored balls on the screen and a cannon in the middle. The cannon has a colored ball and the idea is to shoot it in between the balls on the screen to are coming towards you and match a certain number of colors to get them to dissapear. I have in mind about 6 different variations on that theme that can potentially constitute different levels or types of game play. It all sounds so simple but I think it's small enough I can do it as one person. If I can succeed at this I might make it a 3D version also. What would really be cool is a 3D Raiden II type game but that goes beyond my capabilities because I can make the engine no problem, but not the graphics. Anyway, Thanks
