Multiplayer Handicap

(In order to play against other games in Super Retro Mega Wars, we need to know how to do two main things - handicap the current player when other games send events to this game, and send events to other games when we score in this game. Sending events to others is simple, all games do it automatically every time a certain number of points are scored. Handicapping the current player is unique to each game - e.g. in Asteroids new asteroids appear on the screen, in Missile Command missiles appear on the screen)
