[casual_games] Casual Game with cute character

[william sweetman]

I do think you need to have a cute character to sell your game.  Look
at geometry wars, it's a block fighting blocks.  I think it really
comes down to game play.  Make it look interesting enough to pick up,
but then grab them with the game play.
