I was thinking for a while, but I could not figure it out... how did Anders make the level in http://www.create-games.com/download.asp?id=8336 infinite and progressively harder? I have a few ideas for games that could be built off of this kind of level. If anyone has any ideas or knows how to do this please respond.

There two real approaches- one is called "Procedural Generation". Thats when the terrain is generated through a function which gives the same effect every time, but gives a fairly random looking result. An example might be, every 50 frames, he generates a new piece of terrain, picked by the function X^34 % 393
The other way to do it is to simply randomly pick pieces to throw in. Maybe every 50 frames, it just does a random(10) and spawns one of 10 terrain pieces for each area. As the game goes on, you can decrease the offset, perhaps having it at random, to make it harder
