Oh, and for the record: Actually, Mr. Post and I wanted to make an arcade game where you play as the moon and your gravity attracts the waves of the sea beneath you, and you try to destroy cities with them. After two days, we figured we didn't know CraftyJS well enough, so we forgot about it. Then I thought, heck, one more week AND I know Verge so let's do THIS.
