The Dr. Is In

I awoke with a game idea for the 2600. I suppose it can be done on any system. But I chose the 2600. It's a cross between Squeeze Box and Golf. It's a pill-sorting game. The pills move from right to left and your job is to steer the pills up or down to the hole of the same color. If you hit the sides or put a pill in the wrong hole, the hole will grow larger and take up more room. The game ends when a hole gets so large it fills the whole length of the screen. The pills have FOUR colors. Red, yellow and blue are self-explanatory, but the green one is a little different in that you need to destroy it. If it goes in any hole, all three holes will get a little bigger. If people can make games as mundane as being a paperboy or guiding a marble down a hill, I figured I can make this. I did it. I added sound and made it not wiggle on real hardware. Working within the confines of 2k, I have about 24 bytes left.
