The Lost World looked so much like PA3 because I simply didn't have the knowledge then to extensively re-design the engine... something I did do for RoA. You'll see what I mean when you play RoA. This game is (or so it was intended) completely different from PA3 and The Lost World. > In the case of PA3 and Lost World (since I didn't play RoA, I can't say > anything about that), there were similarities like exploring huge mazes and > fighting enemies in almost exactly the same way.

Well, this has nothing to do with the engine whatsoever. it's simple screenplay. If you have any ideas or suggestions, I'm all ear.
