...that contrary to what you might think from seeing these, you can actually see clearly what you're doing and play accordingly. There are many game cues embedded in what is happening in the psychedelic stuff, and it balances out so that the stuff you need to see is more visible than the pure (unencoded) pyrotechnics.

It's starting to feel nicely like a game now

The gameplay revolves around expletives then?

I would like to hug whichever of you, Giles or both had the idea for the Nixie-style score digits. Oh yes

Fair enough. Looks a bit like Tempest by the way.

I'm not actually sure what thing I would be controlling. I'm sure it makes more sense in motion though! Looks wibbly.

The joke is that it's an old joke, you see.

Humour in the ridiculous, and all that.
