As a few (very few) of you know, I'm taking "Computer Programming" at my high school. While I don't consider learning/teaching LOGO really counts as such a calss, I still need help. Thankfully, not with the language itself, but with an idea.

My teacher has assigned us a "Mini-Game Project." I basically need an idea for a game. Nothing complex mind you as this will be due the 12th of this month (which would be March in case you're stuck in a time-warp) and the graphics editing software in this sompiler is sad at best. I don't plan on making anything amazing as this is my first attempt in playing with code other than HTML or Java. I'm definitely getting a firm understanding of the language, but anyone who knows LOGO or simply has an idea would be of real help.

Probably lots of people already doing these, but to keep it simple, pong, tetris, breakout, tic tac toe, dots, or clone of some other game.

Don't know if the prof would mind that its not an original idea. Shouldn't matter, coding any of those would show a great understanding of the language.

edit: Oh and sorry, don't know anything about logo.

PONG! Of course! I already did a project in which I made a "horse" run across the screen and when it touched the "fence" I drew, it would turn and run the other way. I know how to make the movement random as well. Random movement won't quite be true to Pong, but at least it won't look like:
|o------|
|-o-----|
|--o----|
|---o---|
|----o--|
|-----o-|
|------o|
and then again reversed, but at least it will work. Now I just need to find a way to be able to move the "paddles". I could do it with buttons in the game itself, but if anyone can think of a way that would allow me to do it by pressing keys on the keyboard, let me know.
