    Seems a computer engineer, a systems analyst, and a programmer were
    driving down a mountain when the brakes gave out. They screamed down the mountain, gaining speed, but finally managed to grind to a halt, more by
    luck than anything else, just inches from a thousand foot drop to jagged
    rocks. They all got out of the car:
    The computer engineer said, "I think I can fix it."
    The systems analyst said, "No, no, I think we should take it
    into town and have a specialist look at it."
    The programmer said, "OK, but first I think we should get back
    in and see if it does it again."

    Getting a lot of "Geometry Wars" vibe from this one; I don't really
    see what it does that GW didn't.

    Still, I'm a sucker for neon-drenched visuals (and, you know, it's
    free) so I took it. In that rare instance I'm in a mood for a
    twin-stick shooter, maybe I'll give it a try.

    (although odds are - should such a mood strike me - I'll forget I own
    this and just play GW instead ;-)

    Nonetheless, thank you for the head's up, Zaghadka.
