thinking about some rpg/strategy elements:
each turn player can choose one option:
THINK -> research better weapons/walls in a simple technology tree
MOVE -> move a bit (not a platformer style like in TEAM17 Worms)
SHOOT -> selfexplanatory
BUILD -> build wall
SHIFT -> up is down ;)

perhaps some bonuses dropped from sky ?

I like the name "Think" for that ability, it fits.

What kind of theme are you thinking of for this? Something more comical, like Worms? Or abstract?

Any special attacks? I like the idea of bonus items falling from the sky, too.
