Took about an hour to come up with the idea, so here’s about 2 or 3 hours of work. Basically the idea is you manually control the traps in a masochistic side-scroller. A bunch of AI “players” stream in from the left and you have to first click on a trap on the top screen and then the bottom screen will zoom in on that trap. From there you’ll have to perform the right series of inputs to make the trap fire. For instance, the saw trap I have right now just requires the user to press the up arrow, but a cannon might require the down arrow to put a cannon ball in, then the right arrow to pack it in, and then space to fire. As the game progresses you’ll get more traps in the level and there will be more dudes streaming in which should make it become very frantic. Once x number of dudes get through it’s game over and you’re scored on kills or time or something.

So it’s a relatively simple idea and shouldn’t be too hard to pull off, but I’m going to be proud as hell if I finish it!
