Sounds good..I'm in

Edit: This is ok, but you really need to make the helicopter fall slower. And what about if you make a bunch of pre-sized obstacles and have it place random ones at specific hardpoints, instead of one preset course?

Yeah, you have to shrink to the tiniest ship, because it doesn't have as touchy controls.

I'm still working on the physics, they aren't close to being finished.
I would've made randomly generated courses, but I'm not that smart, so I decided to make the stages more complicated.

This is great, but the graphics and gameplay aren't as good as Ribbon. Sure, in Ribbon you're just a freaking line, but it's cool.
