Well, the sounds don't appear to be incripted, ---- so at least
theoretically it should be no harder than creating a mod even if Tom has not
got the source code.
As you said though, there's no knowing whether he'll go this route or not so
speculation about whether it is or is not possible isn't such a crytical
thing to considder at this stage.
Beware the grue!

But the question still remains whether or not Thomas even has that old
source code. If he doesn't then he couldn't do it even if he was willing
to go that route, which of course we don't know yet.

Well Bryan, I'd hope that this idea wouldn't take too much shinanigans
with the source code, ----- only modding a couple of sounds where the
game name is spoken.
I was actually going to suggest this later on when Tom had actually
released the game and moved on to another project, ----- sinse I hate to
see good gaming work lost, ----- but given what Tom said about a mob of
rabid 80's side scroller fans, ----- it might help now.
Beware the grue!

Now that, my friend, isn't a half bad idea. The question is if he's
still got the source code for that. If not then he can't very well do
it. But it might just salve the feelings of those few who are dead set
on having a bland, Atari style side scroller, not that there's a thing
wrong with that.

Hi Tom.
Here's a rather crazy idea to salve the feelings of those who are
desperate for an 80's game.
Go back to the last stable version of montizuma's return, ---- say beta
9, ---- I stil have this on my harddrive, ---- which is possibly
illegal, but deleting good games is against my principles.
The game already has 6, highly playable 80's side scroller levels.
Re-reccord the name of the game to something generic, ---- Temple
adventures, treasure quest, --- Montizuma's avengence, do a quick
search and replace on the instructions to change the name of panama Jo
to something else, ---- peruvian Jim?
Then offer it as an extra freeby to those who buy Mota.
They then get all of Mota, ---- which I hope will continue as a modern
side scroller, pluss 6 levels of pure classic 80's!
Just a suggestion.
all the best,
Dark.
