#3This is really nice, simple and fun game. Absolutely a great first project. I love how the physics feel.

#4Super fun, your little brother did a great job!
Only criticism I would say is to add some directions if possible, even though for most people it's common sense it took me a little while to figure out I needed to use my keyboard :P.

#6Very nice. I had fun with it. Maybe a little description of the goals on the page underneath the play area would be good? Took me a while to realize picking up the red squares was actually reducing my score. I initially thought they were just meant to be more challenging to pick up since they moved.

#7Impressive, I wanted to make an RPG type of engine in Processing[0] and did similar, just made blocks that could move around based on keyboard input. Didn't continue on with it though.

#8Nice game, shortly after I started it dawned on me... Because it allows wrap-around you can just hold down the up arrow key and it becomes more of a 1-D game and seemed easier to play. Then the red thing showed up and started getting in the way and I found it easier to use all the arrows again.

#9That's cool, also similar idea to a game I made some time ago for a lisp game jam

#10So fun. I like the AI logic, if he wants a fun addition he should add more enemies as the score increases and implement something like the pac-man ghost logic so that they all behave differently: http://gameinternals.com/post/2072558330/understanding-pac-m...
