i do know exactly what you mean, ---- though I've never played the nes batman game you mention (I have played the Mega drive one though. My reply: If I'm not mistaken that was a port or remake of the original NES version to the Mega Drive wasn't it? Dark wrote: The game is simple, and the game's goal, blow up enemies, find power ups, look for the exit, is equally simple, however the execution of this is far more complex simply because the levels are such huge mazes. My reply: So I gather. Of course I wasn't planning on making Mysteries of the Ancients quite so large. Obviously, since the inspiration is Tomb Raider I expect the levels will be more on par with the Tomb Raider side-scrollers like Nightmare Stone and Prophecy for the Nintendo Gameboy. Dark wrote: As i said, shades of doom deffinately shared some of this feeling, particularly in not being restricted in progress, but I've yet to see an audio side scroller that even comes close. My reply: Yeah, I haven't seen one either. Part of it is up until now most side-scrollers like Super Liam, Tarzan Junior, Q9, etc were restricted to a 1d platform run/jump left/right type format. Mysteries of the Ancients at least offers a virticle movement allowing me to create some very large levels both left/right and up/down. Should be interesting.
