Climbing game (or, something you won't see anytime soon)

Rock climbing game.  Click for largerFound this neet-o info about a climbing game in development by Chris Hecker. As you can see in the picture, it is an actual picture of an indoor gym wall, and then there's an animated figure that you presumably have to guide up to the finish hold. Of course, this is a game that has a mass market appeal index of approximately zero, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't like to play it. I was imagining if somehow it could be turned into a competitive online game, with clans and tournaments, etc. Maybe you could combine it with something like this, where your opponent would set a really hard route, and you'd have to climb it, but if you fell off, they would have to do it.. sort of virtual climbing HORSE, as it were.
