Spheres

To Lopdo: You could make spherical maps that you turned with your clicker, like a map of the world. Also, you could make thanksgiving races (like turkeys or something).

When you say "spherical," you mean 3D maps, right? I don't think it would be even possible for Lopdo to do that....
This too shall pass.

No, he means that the extreme east of the map is connected with the extreme east, and potentially some weird thing in north/south (or just assumed there are some inaccessible poles).

Like in civilization, y'know?

I get it now...but I still don't think Lopdo could do this.

I always refer to it as PacMan Physics, because that's the most prominent display of it in gaming.

EDIT:
It's actually pretty easy to code KNOWN maps, simply set MAX+1=1, and 1-1=MAX (unless you're using a 0 index array). But I can't imagine how Random maps are created, let alone how to implement PacMan Physics on them.

This is correct, like a globe. It would be an interesting add on to the game.
