Read the blog (yes Chris, I know it's slow...)-- (URL) made a little video game. I know that others have made on-screen games, so I just went with it. As soon as I saw the 'aim' pic and the 'rabbit' pic, I knew I just had to do this. So with much (...) (18 years ago, 8-Mar-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.robotics.nxt)
