Fair enough tom, ---- though personally I never noticed either of these bugs
being a major annoyence and found (heck, stil find), the game highly
playable.
Lack of a distance reporting function is just some extra added challenge.
while I'm as sorry as anyone that the stupid legalities got in the way of
you delivering what was shaping up to be a great game, ---- I do think Mota
has improved upon things no end, while keeping the inervation which Monti
started.
Beware the Grue!

Hi Dark,
Oh, there are a few bugs. One of them you would die and respaun at the
same place instead of at the beginning of the level. Another bug you would
jump and get stuck in the air. These didn't happen all the time, but they
could get annoying when they did happen.
There also a couple that are more suddle. I was asked to add a command
that would announce the distance and direction to the monsters. Well, when
I started work on that problem I realized I screwed up the game in a big
big way. I had the coordinates system backwards, and of course my
calculations were all coming out screwy. One way or another the game
required a major rewrite/overhall to fix that problem. I wasn't going to
do it until 1.0 was released, but it seams my copyright issues solved that
problem for me.
As it happens I'm sort of disappointed myself in not being able to deliver
that game to the ag community. It was a simple and fun game. One that
would have stood out in the ag community as a good remake of a classic
side-scroller. Now, I've got MOTA, it is a good game in its own right, but
I do understand why a few people are pining away for the original game.

But it is up to you Tom. I merely offered this as a low work solution for
those who are desperate for an 80's game, ---- also, I stil happen to
think the original Montizumas return had merrit and so wouldn't like to
see it lost.
It's very much your decision though.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
