The theme for this competition is Mouse control ! Games must be primarily controlled by the mouse.
The only rules are that you start a new game now and finish before midnight on Sunday (GMT) . World time converter: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html
As usual, some grace time will be allowed for those just finishing off - a couple of hours at most but no more. Any questions, just ask here.
So, off you go!

Wait, "midnight on Sunday" can be pretty ambiguous. Do you mean the midnight-that's-in-a-few-hours or the midnight-that's-in-24-plus-a-few-hours?
The latter makes more sense, so I'll just assume it's that. Yup. TO THE MMF2 COMPUTER !!

I have two ideas now - one might be possible and the other I have absolutely no chance of finishing in the time remaining. I'll give the former a shot but I only have 2-3 hours free tomorrow.
We also need to talk about anonymous entries - I don't mind accepting either, just remember to tell me if you want your name alongside the download link when you send it to me.
