Game Design > Drug related games!!!

I work for a team that deals with drugs and alcohol awareness and action, but have opted to develop a game for our website thedrugzone.co.uk. My original idea was to remake Java Blast Arena; but I am also wondering what other ideas I could use.

A java version of tetanus on drugs seems like a good idea - I already have texture mapping code that I could use to create a warping effect. Any simple arcade type games would be good ideas, especially ones that are quick to implement.

Ok, I think a lockjaw clone (ish) would be the best one as it can be accomplished fairly quickly. Blast arena can come later! My plan for that requires a couple of added features that adds to the complexity.

By emulating the "mode 7" technique (mode 1 or 2 of GBA), right?
