Somebody's gotta use this name! Somebody's gotta make a game called "sunky the battleship!"" Do it quickly! I will ask for no revenues!

Do you have a concept for the game or just the name? I have a whole list of names along the lines of "Sunky the Battleship" that I want to turn into games.

Tell you what, you agree to do the music for a cut of the royalties and I'll make that game next :)

One button. You're a sunken battleship that can't move left and right. Boats, sharks, octopi, dolfins, etc swim by above and you launch your last remaining weapons upward. Your oxygen only lasts 1 minute. If you blow up x number of objects before your oxygen runs out, you get more.

Now that gives me some ideas. Ever play Every Extend? I may mock some things up tomorrow.

I am pleased. Very pleased. I already hummed the Sunky game level music into my laptop mic. Now I must arrange it for midi. Resolution? 800x600 or 640x480... Or something even more retro?

800x600 for the resolution. I have some other deadlines looming over my head right now so I won't be able to begin work in earnest on Sunky for a couple of weeks. That said, I did start a design doc today and I think I have a good sense of what I'd like the gameplay to be.

Well, I just got a big contract. Woohoo! So, I doubt I will have time for Sunky music yet either. But hey, it seems like something worth making. Do you get PM notification in email? I'll be sure to let you know when I have free time.
Or just email me at composerarts - at - yahoo - dot - com
