sure of course. i've taught an introduction to game development using Blender 
at several universities, and the pinball-like tute has proven to be a good
introduction to both the tools and game design concepts. 

out of interest, what is the policy regarding the hosting of files
related to the tutorial? by this i mean sound-files, python code,
*.blends. 

i'll get on to this and the other components of the documentation i mentioned.
