Ok, here are my (pretty wimpy) entries.

[Flash Shooter](http://roy.wigginsworld.org/site/flash/games/shooter.html): Shoot the mines! This game is all original, exept the code to move forward is from a book- just a line that calculates the new position of the player and enemies. I hope that doesn’t disqualify it.

[Flash Canvas](http://roy.wigginsworld.org/site/flash/games/drawer_contest.html): This I made a while ago, and has a load of code I can hardly understand now, its so convoluted. Anyway, its a pretty compex drawing app, no true circles though.

That’s what makes it so cool. Just like first person shooter’s you have to use you mouse and key board. 😛

I couldn’t figure out how to control thrust with the mouse anyway, and holding space down is needed because I wanted to regulate the firing speed for both the mouse and the keyboard, because clicking a mouse really fast is easier than pressing space really fast.

One little thing. When I got the wave 15 things started to go very slow…  
Don’t know if it’s because the bad guys are get smarter (and taking more CPU power) or there are movieclip not deleting properly.

I think I do remove them properly, I kind of remember a while ago someone telling me about the same problem, I will have to take a look at it. Also, I saw your post count at “1,234” (-:
