started work on the flyswatter game, right now am able to display a fly on the screen, but having trouble with the scaling, movement is also already hapening, don't know about animation because the scale is so big

+
+So i'm changing my plans right now, this experimental branch is going to test out how it would work if i ran 2 games seperatly on 2 screens and the player has to deal with both.
+
+# whats the second game
+
+probably gonna be swatting flies from wario ware but on the bottom screen
