Not 2 sound greedy here but here r a few ideas that i've bin achin 2 learn.

HOMING MISSLES

WEAPON CHANGE SYSTEM

CHECKPOINT SYSTEMS

LIFE/AMMO COUNTS

FLUID MOVEMENTS
( NOT using the 'wait 4 frame' action, that thing just slows down the action in your game and makes people hate u! )

any demos of these or others would b awesome. then i could stop buggin peopl, 4 a while :D

Pac-man games and space invader games are quite simple to make.

If you want to get started on making space invaders, then look at makslanes tutorials. that got me started learning quick.

and if your wondering how to make more than one level, lets say like a pac-man, or space invaders game. all you have to do is add an activation event when you kill or get a certain amount of dots in pacman, or kills in space invaders, then you move the actor to the new level. Possibly a filled region or just a coordinate.

The easiest way to make an inventory is to use an array, each array space acts as an inventory space. You get the idea.
I'm making a tutorial page right now it will be explained better there.
