IDEAS:
Frogger: Fleet of slow, player controlled, frog-shaped ships having to escape through the top of the screen dodging impossibly thick, hurtling asteroid fields running across the field. A team of slow moving alligator-shaped ships hunts yo down.
Bullet Heaven / Hell: A team of UFOs are trying to kill you. They outmanouvre you, but their bullets are slow and easy to dodge (in the singular) but gradually the field fills up with lots of different coloured energy bolts. The only way to win is by continuing to dodge until they all kill each other in the hail of bullets.
