It\u2019s Q*bert!<\/p>\n

\u2026not really though, but you can sort of modify the landscape by raising or lowering tiles, and the rest adapts to remove any greater-than-two differences between neighbors (basically a hack to avoid situations my draw sort can\u2019t handle :P)<\/p>\n

I\u2019m trying really hard to think of a way to use this for gameplay, but it looks like I might be drawing a blank. There\u2019s another mechanic in there as well though, the chain reaction one, but it\u2019s sort of shaky too.\u00a0 It would be nice if I could at least come up with some pathetic game-ish behavior for all of it before I start digging my nose into gfx and music\u2026 but maybe it is not to be. I should probably start tinkering with gfx for now and see if something comes to mind.<\/p>\n
