When I heard the theme last night, I thought I’d try to do something special. I googled “define:tower”, and saw that it could mean someone who tows, and thought I’d make a game about someone in a spaceship, towing wrecked ships around. The graphics were supposed to be Wing Commander style.

Of course, now that I’ve slept a bit, I realize how utterly unrealistic that idea is, so I’m reusing whatever code I can and starting over with a much simpler idea.

Here’s a screenie of how far I got last night (about three hours of work):

There’s no actual gameplay in there, and you can’t move your ship, so don’t expect too much.
