Chain Reaction Reaction

So far I have mostly been sleeping. Woke up to find that the theme was Chain Reaction. I’ve had a couple of vague ideas, and I think I’m probably going to go for the least interesting because it’s the one I’m most likely to finish. Here are my initial thoughts:

- Some kind of physics-based puzzler, like The Incredible Machine, or maybe some sort of domino variant.

- Something like Lights Out or Reversi/Othello, where your move affects other pieces on the board.

- A looser interpretation of the theme (ie. kind of ignoring the “reaction” part): a scrolling shooter where your weapon is a morning star.

At the moment, I’m thinking the last of the three. I never liked Lights Out, and I think the first one is too much to do. I’ll give myself another hour to think about it, though.
