Hi Philip,
I would certainly purchase it. I think they were very good and I still use
the TJ demo despite it currently being abandonware. From other audio
recordings I have heard of my friends playing it, the levels were rather
good, and I would certainly be happy to say I have purchased it legally as
well as having a generally improved version.
Regards,
Damien.

Subject: [Audyssey] The old Pb-games
Hi all,
I've been following the recent discussion and thought I would jump in with
a few notes and a question. All of my old games from pb-games.com such as
Tarzan Junior, Dark Destroyer, Showdown and 3d Snake were all written in
JavaScript. This is not a good language for even remotely serious game
development, but it was a wonderful sandbox for a curious 12 year old to
take the first staggering steps on the road to programming and eventually
Q9 and BGT. Grin. Anyhow, these games were written with Internet Explorer
4 in mind and ran very well in that browser, but do not work nearly as
nice in newer versions like 7 and 8. The cause of this I know not, I just
know that it's a fact.
Now to my question. If I were to rewrite and vastly improve these old
titles, would you buy them? I am thinking Tarzan Junior especially. That
game had some good elements in it, underneath all the bad acting that I'm
afraid I was responsible for as well as the now rather sluggish game play.
So in short, if I rewrote this game into a good product, would any of you
want to spend $30 on it?
Kind regards,
Philip Bennefall
