Look at it! The selection pulses! Empire's never looked so good!
And it has a retro look to it.
But why is the first option just an "A" by itself?
There are some rough edges; the save games fail to load, demo isn't working,
the text log
isn't cleared correctly.
BTW which version did you start from? In my version I completely rewrote the text display
as what we had was geared towards a character-cell display, which was no good with it
using a proportional font. I think I found that some existing saved games wouldn't load,
but there's no problem loading games that were saved with that same version.
But other than that you can happily play a game right through. I
can't put the code anywhere because distribution is prohibited, so this is my
last ditch
effort to contact Walter.
The version I've contributed I emailed to Walter and he eventually put it up on the
website. Is there any reason the same can't be done in this instance?
