    It's pretty good, actually. I got the hang of it and scored about three in a row. I can see how you would be able to add extra levels/maps with obstacles or holes, etc.

    on that version of the game, the record set by mr. potkins is 115 Smile
    i've since improved the ai a bit with plans to make him take his current speed more into account when deciding on angles

    Are you going to change the opposing character to something else?

    just played pineapple smash crew
    It is well cool. It comes out the end of this month on steam, not sure how much it will be, though.

    I've just read that. I kind of feel bad for Goldhawk Interactive who are making Xenonauts, a spiritual successor to XCOM. This will really take away the shine of what they're doing.

    Fletchedit: While we're on the subject of XCOM, the entire franchise is available on Steam today for £3.05.
