Here's my idea for the next big wave in computer gaming - Nano-games! Games with a small display, but big gameplay - kinda like Gameboy for the PC. Soon to overtake the internet as top tier Productivity killer for yuppies! Haven't you ever been at work/school, and wished you could be playing Everquest/Starcraft/Quake etc., but were afraid someone walking by would see the game on your screen? Enter Nano-games! - games you can tuck away in one corner of your screen hidden below the spreadsheet/e-mail/word program!

Okay, enough goofy marketing pitch. Here's my latest work in progress - Nano Shell-acked, a mini-3D version of that old classic Scorched Earth.



Download version 0.0.1:

Use arrows to move tank, Shift/Ctrl to zoom in/out, Z/X to pan around the tank.

Our civilization faces three great dangers. The first is destruction by a nuclear war, the second is being crippled with overpopulation and the third is the Age of Leisure.

your "new" Idea sounds kinda like a flash game. They are already all over the internet. check out Joecartoon.com for samples. I love the dolphin killer one.

On target, On time!
