Well, I spent all last night thinking up VS ideas, then watching TV and thinking of more, then when TV was over I said, \u201cthat\u2019s it.\u00a0 I\u2019m going with Schrodinger Vs. Pavlov\u201d.\u00a0 I thought it\u2019d be cool, an army of dogs that you can steer around with a bell cursor, vs. a guy who can place boxes that contain pop-up cats that may be alive or dead.\u00a0 Then I was thinking it would be like a board game, where the Pavlov guy has cards with various dogs and bells and things, and the Schrodinger guy has dice with 3 alive-cat faces and 3 dead-cat faces.\u00a0 The closest I got to an actual idea was that Schrodinger could commit his dice to various battles, and hope they were enough when actually rolled.\u00a0 It didn\u2019t actually make a game, though.<\/p>\n
So this morning I woke up still with no ideas that worked, and finally decided it had to be the very first idea that struck me as solid.\u00a0 I didn\u2019t want to do a platformer, but here I go anyway: Miyamoto Vs. Yamamoto.\u00a0 You\u2019ll hop from ship to ship, bouncing on their various parts to sink them, then hop off before you sink with them.\u00a0 It won\u2019t be Mario, because you\u2019ll be dodging fire directly aimed at you by the cannons and other oddities, and the \u2018defeat each ship\u2019 motif is a little different.\u00a0 Got some ideas, anyway!\u00a0 Time to build a ship editor!<\/p>\n
