Atarius Maximus has been working on a new game called Space Run.

Quote:

I was experimenting with a 3D type space shooter with this one, but haven’t gotten very far with it. It’s nowhere near a complete game. The playfield scrolls back to give the illusion that you’re travelling down the tunnel. The obstacles scroll up the tunnel from the middle (and get larger as they approach), you then have to fly around and avoid them. If you run into one, the screen will flash red. I actually did this quite some time ago and got stuck, I just wasn’t sure where to go with the game. Anybody see any potential in this, or have any suggestions?
