Hi liam if its a double dragon style game i'd sure go for it. For 1 reason we don't have us a beat'emup. srue this is not just fight fight like streetfighter its a scrolling fighter but none the less we could sure do with one of those. Just my opinion. I know what its like keeping going on stuff i have songs sitting here that are half recorded and that i really should finesh. you ai'nt heard nothing til ya heard it from the mad man www.livejournal.com/users/afro_thunder nothing but pure truth. ----- Original Message ----- From: Thomas Ward To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, January 29, 2006 5:24 PM Subject: Re: audyssey: Monty, of course
Hi. Interesting. i am sure you aren't the only one who can't stay focussed on one project. I am now pushing myself to finish STFC, because there is 101 other ideas spinning around in my head, and I want all those games. STFC I've played in to the ground for testing, and I want something new, but most others have not. Smile.
