d) A game set in the original house, except everything is quadruple size stttth.... tricky to

execute, if not impossible.

You might get away with
this if you shrunk Willy even further; for example, a
game set entirely in the bath from 'The Bathroom'. The
tap alone could take up nine screens, with the
guardians being the various germs that inhabit the
plug-'ole. Maybe this has already been
contemplated.

think the conveyor belt idea sounds

nice.

Perhaps, but it would probably have to contain no
collectibles - if you missed one then there may be no way back
and the game would be uncompletable.

I imagine
'gimmick' ideas are unsustainable across more than a
limited number of screens.

another idea is a vertical game where you are either climbing up or

down carefully

Perhaps like 'Bugaboo the
Flea'?
