Default Need a project idea

Basically I am writing an Engine for me and my friends. We have loads of games working with it but we don't have any applications, mainly because we can't think of any to make.
So, do you have any ideas of an application we could make?
We will credit you in the program.

It does audio =P. One of the games I'm developing runs on user audio files, however, thats irrelevent.
I'll work on that.
Anymore ideas?

Well, it's still a work in progress. Basically we are improving it as we program games and applications.
So say we needed an algorithm to calculate gradient from audio files we would make it and then add that to the Engine as we work.
So our engine pretty much does what the PSP can handle (or to how much we can code) except from video playback. Basically though i'm looking for apps which include any of the following:
2D Graphics
Flash writing
Audio
Fonts
Motion Sensing

Basically anything that doesn't require video playback. We are trying to improve our Engine before releasing it.

Wow good choice. We have a similar game to that already. The Engine does support 3D however we don't need anymore work on it.

Yeah and that game would be perfect for tilting the PSP to make it go whatever direction you want. GO FOR IT!

Yeah that. But i'm pretty sure the ITouch has 128 mb of RAM and the psp has 32mb and 64 mb (depending on if it's a slim or original).

I didn't think so. I'll add motion sensing support to the obstacle game and release it with the Engine.
