Re: [Audyssey] ninja turtle game
Sounds cool! I must have missed that one. the definitive turtles game for me has always been the arcade beat em up, which ate loads of my ten P's as a child. i love the fact you fight all the enemies, from bebop and rocksteady to backster stockman and general trag, and all the original voice samples and such are there. Of course it's not in arcades anymore, but I might just have been able to acquire it somehow, wink wink! and it's stil great! Beware the Grue!

As to chess, well i used to be a member of the braille chess association myself, as did my brother (who was under 21 champion and on the British team at one point, though I was never that good of course). I don't think the logic required looking at the board and predicting moves and situations for pieces has that much to do with site, sinse incredibly good chess players can predict a board situation many moves in advance and visualize (or probably a more correct term would be conceptualize), a completely different state of play than that at the moment. Practically though, under the sport rules of chess, blind players get a time advantage on the clock, sinse it takes them longer to examine the board by touch, and obviously the touch move rule (if you touch a piece you must move it), doesn't apply. Oh, and sinse in serious chess tournaments each player has their own board, so your quite free to examine it while your opponent is moving. they then mention the move in chess notation, Eg, pawn to edward 4), and you make it on your board. You use names for each letter to stop confusion, Eg, anna and bela instead of A and B, and there are reffs wandering around to check that your board and your opponent's are the same, for this reason it's also a good idea to keep records of your moves (I used to use an a P H tape recorder). the really hard thing is that playing internationally, you need to do everything in German, which I remember as a real pest! Oh and for spacial stuff and chess, I actually found it much easier with the board in front of me than on a computer reading square by square, and I would probably find the other grid based games easier in a physical form as well.

In england as well for many years, hence some of the hempen rope pirate references in books like treasure island, and the pirate song in Peter pan: Yoho Yoho, a pirate life, a flag of skull and bones! a merry hour, a hempen rope and hay for Davy Jones. Many platformers had a thing about climbing and swinging on ropes and vines though, even in the sand crawler level on super starwars for example. If we are having swinging ropes, does that me more platforming puzles? And also there's then the fun of areal enemies such as bats or hanging spikes to be encountered while on the rope. One of my favourite old amstrad cpc platformers, rowland on the ropes, even had falling scorpions which would drop on your head on one side of the rope or the other, so you had to make certain which side of the rope you were climbing up.

Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Return Progress Report.
Hi Bryan, Exactly. I like the idea of adding more strategy and options to the game play, combat, and traps. For example, let us say you have a roaring fire, and you happen to have some kind of container with you. Oh, you remembered the under ground lake you saw a couple of rooms back. Run back, draw some water, and toss it on the flames. They go out and you can walk over that place. Perhaps there is a room with spikes or darts that will kill you as soon as you walk into that room. Maybe there is a hidden lever somewhere in the temple you can pull and it will reset the spikes so they won't kill you? It is all apart of rethinking how the game works, adding in some puzzle solving or something. Bryan wrote: You could have it set up so that maybe i some situations the sword wouldn't be feasible, so you'd have to swith to the whip or some other weapon. There's a Skeleton on a distant platform that would prevent you from making the jump unless it was dealt with. Sine trying to jump and swing a sword at the same time might be dangerous, she could always draw her bow and take it out before even attempting the leap. Makes a lot of sense, especially if Angela had to grab onto the ledge or whatever to pull herself up. Kinda hard to do that when swinging a sword.

Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Return Progress Report.
I personally think there should be a few bosses, perhaps every few levels or so. Helps to break up the monotony. One could be say a more powerful undead warrior, another could be like a stone guardian of some kind, while a third could be a demon who started out in spirit form and you had to hit him with his own magic to force him to become solid. Then you could slash him with your sword or whatever to actually cause damage.

Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Return Progress Report.
Hi Dark, As for my agreement with them I simply agreed to change the name. I said somewhere in one of my other posts that I decided on my own initiative to go ahead and rework the levels. I had two reasons for deciding this. First, while working on Beta 10 I got several requests to add a feature to report distance and direction to items and monsters. Well, as I worked on said feature for Beta `10 I discovered that the way James and I was creating level maps and the way my game formulas worked were completely different. As a result I either reneeded to work my game calculations or recreate the maps to add said feature. That actually uncovered a bug I wasn't aware existed, but now I know exists, and needs fixed one way or another. Second, since this copyright issue came up I decided to go ahead and redo the maps. Sure I can use the existing maps as a template, but if I am going to update the maps why not add in some changes and extras while I am at it? Dark wrote: Hi Tom. Well, I'm glad it's fixed, and I'm always a fan of new levels. but tom, as has been said, nobody can copywwrite a concept or even a level layout, and it seems a distinct shame for you to have to wrip up all the level designing you've already done. How about keeping the levels you've got maybe as a specific option in the main menue under the name montizuma's temple or astec ruins or something like, and then do your own fiendish level designing for some new levels, perhaps under another option in the main menue. It just strikes me as rather sad, especially with all the work you did designing them to begin with, and from playing through them myself I will say their good and interesting levels and deffinately worth keeping. I certainly would also like to see your own level designs, but why do we have to have one or the other? Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] logic and spatial awareness games
Hmmm, well if you just mean logic puzles and riddles, ---there are a couple of places you can try. One is the spoken network's quiz section on http://www.pressakey.net/ Another is http://www.qbyte.org/ also look around for online quizzes and riddles, written in text (there are quite a few of those around I think). As to chess, well i used to be a member of the braille chess association myself, as did my brother (who was under 21 champion and on the British team at one point, though I was never that good of course). I don't think the logic required looking at the board and predicting moves and situations for pieces has that much to do with site, sinse incredibly good chess players can predict a board situation many moves in advance and visualize (or probably a more correct term would be conceptualize), a completely different state of play than that at the moment. Practically though, under the sport rules of chess, blind players get a time advantage on the clock, sinse it takes them longer to examine the board by touch, and obviously the touch move rule (if you touch a piece you must move it), doesn't apply. Oh, and sinse in serious chess tournaments each player has their own board, so your quite free to examine it while your opponent is moving. they then mention the move in chess notation, Eg, pawn to edward 4), and you make it on your board. You use names for each letter to stop confusion, Eg, anna and bela instead of A and B, and there are reffs wandering around to check that your board and your opponent's are the same, for this reason it's also a good idea to keep records of your moves (I used to use an a P H tape recorder). the really hard thing is that playing internationally, you need to do everything in German, which I remember as a real pest! Oh and for spacial stuff and chess, I actually found it much easier with the board in front of me than on a computer reading square by square, and I would probably find the other grid based games easier in a physical form as well.

[Audyssey] Shades of Doom 1.2 recordings
I have recordings of Shades of Doom 1.2. I cover all levels except level 9. Dark said the following on 2/10/2008 5:45 PM: well, I'm a big fan of Pbx and the party pack, and look forward to future packs they mentioned. I think it was just a bad day, and I couldn't be bothered mucking about with runtime errors, so iuninstalled it, and unfortunately it's one of those one time only things. sinse doing the audio games.net posting, I sort of feel it's my job to try all audio games anyway so as to give a fair opinion, - though sinse I was following this philosophy before Richard gave me the job it probably doesn't make too much difference anyway, and at least this way I was able to try some games that I might not normally have considdered, - such as railracer. Btw, yes Bryan, a 1.2 walkthrough of shades would be nice, in fact on the subject of walkthroughs, there are several things that could be done, Sarah, Th, trophies in Jd etc. If I can ever sort out the sterrio and voice recording business, I might well considder doing some audio ones myself.

Re: [Audyssey] logic and spatial awareness games
Thanks Dark, but what's really rubbish is you know, what I was also thinking of for logic, are logic puzzles, but I can't find accessible ones, I've been to plenty of sites and I they're all flash-based, you know, the kind of puzzles where, for example, five boys date five girls, and they give you clues for you to work out who dated who. For spatial, I'm with you, but, something like Blank Block, I'm just rubbish at trying to picture moves in advance, that's probably why I'm also rubbish at chess, I just don't vision all the possibilities with all the ifs and buts, this spatial question is really tricky! About chess, I heard someone once, would love to know you guy's thoughts on this, but do you guys think it's harder for a blind person to play chess given the same amount of time with a chess clock as compared to a sighted person, I'm not talking about braininess here, I'm talking about do you guys think sighted people can see moves mor obviously, since their eyes can sort of do a more visualisation of the different parts of the board sort of quicker then a blind person having to use their hands, not to mention that, while the blind person is moving, the sighted person can look at the board, but the blind person can't feel the board while the sighted person is moving, lol, can you imagine!

Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Return Progress Report.
Hi Charles, Well, I might have to add a few extra key strokes, but I think the basic keyboard layout is going to remain the same. For example, if I add extra weapons and tools I am probably going to want to asign each weapon and tool to a number key so you can select it such as 1 sword, 2 whip, 3 bow and arrow, 4 healing potion, 5 torch, etc. When you press space bar it will take the proper action like swing sword, light torch, drink potion, etcThe Tomb Raider games are like this and it is sort of nice. All you need to remember is to press the space key when you are holding the proper item/tool. Another idea is I think I am going to reverse the arrow and shift+arrow combos. I have had several request to asign run to left and right arrows and asign walk to the shift+arrow combos. As i run a lot myself it is one of those ideas that does make sense. One thing we could do with this run/walk idea is there are certain traps like spikes you can only avoid by walking, but if you run you will fall on them and Angela is run through. Interesting? Charles Rivard wrote: Could this mean more keystrokes in a learning curve? I like the fact that there aren't currently a whole flock of them. I do like the strategic possibilities, though. It could be sort of a trade off. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Return Progress Report.
Hi Charles and all, Yeah, I know that this might be a bit of a let down for some in the beginning, but I do think this all may have been all for the better in the long run. Besides not having to worry about using someone else's copyrights I am now free to redesign the game with different traps, difficulties, and add some new monsters that were not present before. I also am more free to listen to end user suggestions and requests. For example, one of the common complaints about the game was you had to find a new sword every time you killed a snake, skull, or spider. I would tell people that is how the Atari game was, and that didn't settle well. They always came back with some response that made sense, but I was strait jacketed to the games rules, and the way that game operated. Another common request was to let the user decide when to light his or her own torches. Many players disliked the fact that the torches light automatically, and often they would light in rooms that you had visited before. This time round I am just going to pull the automatic torch feature and let you choose when to light them on your own. Charles Rivard wrote: There's a lot of Email that has come in over the past few hours, but it sounds like what we'll get in the future will not be a remake of Montezuma's Revenge, which is what I was hoping for, with minor changes. I'm sure it will be a great, fun game, but not what was in the original plans. If I'm right, I'm not complaining, nor would I want my money back. Just a bit disappointed. Then again, have you really liked one particular song by an artist, found that the only way you could get it was on an album with 11 songs you'd never heard on the radio, said Oh, what the heck. I! Want! that! song! and bought the album, and found that you liked the rest of it? I'm thinking that's what this'll be, although not quite that extreme, because most of the game will be the same.

Re: [Audyssey] logic and spatial awareness games
H Ari, well my spacial awareness is pretty pants as well. Your best bet on both counts are probably grid based games employing reasoning such as gma mine sweaper, the various solitare games, all the Bg word games, 15 numbers and lap, Sudocu, Jim kitchin's battle ships, and sound puzle, and blank block from Lighttech interactive. Because of my own spacial awareness business I am pretty awful at these sorts of games myself. for pure reasoning and logic, I'd suggest mastermind, Bg hearts or even Uno (determining your opponent's cards and how they will play), and cribbage, also light locater, and maybe the sticks game from Liam's Lworks arcade package. there are probably others as well which haven't occurred to me as yet. Of course though, any game which features more than just reflex based action is going to stretch your mind somewhat, determining your location in a 3D game like Sarah or Mb, ifficient searching techniques in galaxy ranger, basic resource management again in galaxy ranger and in lords of the galaxy, extreme resource management in sound rts and smugglers 3. then there's multitasking of course, and something like sound rts or lone wolf has that in spades!

First of all, congrats raul. You did a terrific job with your super liam game recording! I have an ugly monster of a dad, he makes me crying, he makes me feel bad. He is a monster, he doesn't allow me my own financial freedom. He doesn't allow me any games which I want to buy myself, he squashes me like a bug, nic oosthuizen is a bad, ugly monster. I wish I could insert an emoticon to cry on -list. Anyway, I want to know something about the ending of the game. Spoiler space The ending music is lovely, it sounds like crackers fired with the music. But then super liam finds a crystal and it explodes into a fire and he shouts, it sounds as if he dies, and then a voice says: to be continued. What does that mean? Super liam is suppose to be the hero, there should be nothing killing him, he defeated x1, so nothing else should kill him. What does that mean? I don't think raul's recording spoil the game for me, raul got hurt a lot of times in the game, so if I play the game if I found a friend who can help me buy the game, I can still find challenge in the game. Raul's game recording doesn't give away all the secrets, if he never got injured, then it would have spoiled it, but the fact that raul got injured it means his recording doesn't spoil it for me who doesn't own the game yet.

I'm fascinated by your history as well, yes, we couldn't play half the stuff, but that doesn't stop us from just racing and crashing the car, but now that consol games are so expensive, it's probably quite awful for people getting into it, as they actually have to spend lots of money just on the one game, not having the cool -in-one stuff we did.

When it is done you should still be able to gather gems, gold coins, fight big ugly spiders, slithery snakes, and some kind of undead creature or creatures. As I see it changing it to be a little more modern is not a bad thing. For example, while the vanishing platforms were in the original game that is kind of weird to find in an ancient temple.

Re: [Audyssey] Important Montezuma's Return announcement
Hi Bryan, Well, I've been doing some thinking about that, and I have decided first off to include this game as apart of the Tomb Hunter series of games. This will be volume 1 in the Tomb Hunter installment featuring Angela Summers as are daring female treasure hunter. I've already imported the Tomb Hunter music, and some of the ambiance so it will match up with volume 2 which is a First Person action adventure. You are right that Angela's Quest might be to generic. I have considered making this temple an ancient Mian ruins which Angela Summers is exploring when she finds it is cursed with undead Mian warriors, giant spiders, and huge giant Pythons to start off with. Though the Aztec's would work too. If it is Aztec's we are sticking with there could be a couple of names we could use. Your name Treasure of the Aztec's or Mysteries of the Aztec's.

[Audyssey] chess between blind and sighted players - Re: logic and spatial awareness games
In tournament chess, the players sit back to back. Each has a chess board in front of him. The moves are verbally spoken and confirmed before the chess clock of your opponent is set in motion. I mention this because it shows that neither player can see what the other player is doing, as in possibly tracing out the plan of attack or defense. You can study the board while the other player is working out their next move without being interfered with. This is one reason I like to play against a computer program--I can study the board without being bothered by the opponent. I like KChess Elite, which can be found at www.arkangles.com because of its flexibility as far as configuration and the wide range of skill that is available, and it works well with JAWS. The trial period is 30 days, after which the game must be purchased, but it is well worth the money. As for the clock, the sighted player is at a definite advantage when playing a 5-minute game, or having to make a move every 10 seconds or in lightning chess. However, if you are playing with a restriction of, let's say, 40 moves in 2 hours, which averages out to 3 minutes per move, I don't see it as a problem. The same goes for having 90 minutes to play your entire game regardless of the number of moves. --- If you don't stand behind our troops, please, feel free ... to stand in front of them! - Original Message - From: ari [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Monday, February 11, 2008 8:23 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] logic and spatial awareness games Thanks Dark, but what's really rubbish is you know, what I was also thinking of for logic, are logic puzzles, but I can't find accessible ones, I've been to plenty of sites and I they're all flash-based, you know, the kind of puzzles where, for example, five boys date five girls, and they give you clues for you to work out who dated who.

Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Return Progress Report.
Ah, I wasn't aware of either the bug or the decision to rework things. I stil hope though somethingg is salvageable from the design you've done. On the other hand, as you've said yourself, you are now free to play with the game, add a lot! more levels, scenarios and enemies, traps etc. One request I would make for the changes if possible, is varying the background ambience betwene levels, or every few levels if there are many, thus giving the player a greater sense of achievement. Perhaps you could include several locations as toom rader did, south america, Egypt, Africa, china and maybe even atlantis, perhaps with a different ambience for each. Another idea might be to use different types of enemies in different environments to fullfil the same functions, so South america has sword wielding skeletons as it's generic walk along grunts, egypt has mummies etc. You could also considder including a more extensive storyline to keep things moving as well.

Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Return Progress Report.
Hi Darren, Yeah, I had been thinking about it, but do to the delays etc I was proceeding ahead with the original plans so to speak. There is a conflict in the math and maps, but I could have solved that problem by rewriting the calculations. That is ok, but that doesn't really excuse the fact I was following James North's level editor rather than checking to see if my engine code was compatible with his stuff. I found out the way his calculations worked and the way mine worked were different, and I frankly didn't like the way his worked. For example, the way the current world engine works if Angela is standing at 9,9 and she jumps her y axis is subtracted and she might be at 9,6 at the top of her arc. To my way of thinking her y axis should increase to 9,12 rather than decrease to 9,6. So The way James was building his worlds was backwards from the way I think, and my calculations were off and I had to correct them to work properly. Not a huge problem, but I don't want the game engine to operate that way for every game. Better off fixing the source of the problem, the world map engine, and be done with it.

Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Return Progress Report.
Will there be bosses? I had an interesting idea for a boss that might fit well into the theme of the new game. It actually features an element of the Twinrova battle from the Legend of Zelda games. My idea was that he'd be a demon of some kind who would start out in spirit form. He would warp around the area, firing off blasts of magical energy. He would have two attacks, fire and ice. The idea would be that you would use your sword or perhaps a magical shield to deflect the blasts of energy back at him. The trick, then, would be to absorb three blasts of the same attack I.E. three blasts of fire or three blasts of ice. After you'd absorbed three of the same attacks you would automatically launch the attack at the demon. This wouldn't actually damage him but it would cause him to assume a solid form. He would then attack you in some other form perhaps, and this would be the time to cause damage. You would then run up and slash him a few times. After being hit a few times he might resume his spirit form and the pattern would have to be repeated. It would involve an element of strategy, but then again it might be hard to do from a programming perspective. But there's my idea. You might need an ehcnanted shield that perhaps had to be found on that level in order to block the demon's magical attacks.

Hi Charles and all, Yeah, I know that this might be a bit of a let down for some in the beginning, but I do think this all may have been all for the better in the long run. Besides not having to worry about using someone else's copyrights I am now free to redesign the game with different traps, difficulties, and add some new monsters that were not present before. I also am more free to listen to end user suggestions and requests. For example, one of the common complaints about the game was you had to find a new sword every time you killed a snake, skull, or spider. I would tell people that is how the Atari game was, and that didn't settle well. They always came back with some response that made sense, but I was strait jacketed to the games rules, and the way that game operated. Another common request was to let the user decide when to light his or her own torches. Many players disliked the fact that the torches light automatically, and often they would light in rooms that you had visited before. This time round I am just going to pull the automatic torch feature and let you choose when to light them on your own. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

It speaks the track you choose, and many FAQS are around on gamefaqs.com to dicipate Have a good day from Tyler C. the remaining confusion. There is also rush 2: extreme racing.

Re: [Audyssey] super liam demo question
Actually Bryan, I deffinately remember Kelly reviewing the game on mainmenue. He played through a bit of sandy serf, lava lake and one level of silver spaceship, and it was this variety of environments that encouraged me to look further into the game. Personally, while I've sometimes had fan and barrier related issues, it's those blasted superguards in lethal lab that I hate, particularly those moments just before the roof lasers and just before the exit when you get swarmed by a load of those things!

If someone outside the blind community saw this game, if they are thinking for example to make a law sute against you, then in order to properly make a case against you they would logically have to look at the game, both in terms of how it's played, code etc so on and so forth. I'm not saying they will go down that road, but in order to make a case logically or I would have thought, someone would have to play the game, a programmer look at the code etc to see what the viability of such a case would be. Not that they would say such things at the start logically there's no reason why they should. Now, lets assume for a moment that someone has done as I have already outlined. To look at the game from as many angles as they can. They will see what you've done and how you have done it. They may even be able to play the game without the use of eyes and I don't mean that patronisingly. It's very difficult initially when you are used to playing games by looking, to switch over to pure audio. Something a total from birth could not understand. In principle yes but not in reality. So think of it like this. They could just as easily let this whole thing go. But at the very least you've got a bit of exposure. At worced they could make a case against you. But as you have said you doubt very much that they will. At best?

Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Return Progress Report.
Hi Dark, Well, as far as this game goes I don't plan to have it playout in several locations as Tomb Raider does for the primary fact I already have one game that does this. My Tomb Hunter FPS game is very much like Tomb Raider in that you will explore pyramids, underground tombs, ancient temples, caves, etc all over the world. I don't really want to repete features of another game already under development. As far as salvaging code most of the underlying engine is fine. Most of it is recreating just the llevel maps, upgrading the monsters, and adding a few new traps here and there. If I dd puzzles and that kind of thing then that will need to be coded, but is still quite a ways along in development so it isn't like starting over from scratch. Dark wrote: Ah, I wasn't aware of either the bug or the decision to rework things. I stil hope though somethingg is salvageable from the design you've done. On the other hand, as you've said yourself, you are now free to play with the game, add a lot! more levels, scenarios and enemies, traps etc. One request I would make for the changes if possible, is varying the background ambience betwene levels, or every few levels if there are many, thus giving the player a greater sense of achievement. Perhaps you could include several locations as toom rader did, south america, Egypt, Africa, china and maybe even atlantis, perhaps with a different ambience for each. Another idea might be to use different types of enemies in different environments to fullfil the same functions, so South america has sword wielding skeletons as it's generic walk along grunts, egypt has mummies etc. You could also considder including a more extensive storyline to keep things moving as well.

Nice, I like I like! In fact with temples and traps, switch puzles, falling rock puzles and such are a bit of a must. You could also considder some reaction puzles, for example, you come upon an area with a wooden floor, and then a bit further up you have a rolling ball trap, and have to deliberately activate the trap and run like the clappers back to the wooden floor so the ball smashes through and you can proceed downwards. If using sapi, you could also have messages on the walls of the temple to read, for either plot info or puzle solving, to give the game more depth. Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Return Progress Report.
Hi Shaun, The new game will still have climbable ropes. Historically speaking ancient peoples did know how to make ropes. In South and Central American cultures they made their ropes out of hemp. For the uninitiated that is the same plant we get marijuana from. Which could get real interesting if it was burning. Lol! I can just see it now. Angela comes upon a hemp rope. It is burning. She starts getting high as a kite.Oo baby. Far out, man. Seriously, hemp made very good rope making material. It is very strong, lasts a long time, and would be more trustworthy than a simple vine. Compared to modern times it would have been the nylon ropes of ancient cultures. Anyway, I do want the ropes to stay in the game. They can be used to get to ledges above and below Angela, swing out over lava pits, fire pits, and other traps, etc. They have allot of uses in a game like this. shaun everiss wrote: WHAT ABOUT THE ROPES AND BURNING ROPES? would TEMPLES REALISTICALLY HAVE ROPES OR WOULD THEY BE VINES.

You are right that Angela's Quest might be to generic. I have considered making this temple an ancient Mian ruins which Angela Summers is exploring when she finds it is cursed with undead Mian warriors, giant spiders, and huge giant Pythons to start off with.

Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Return Progress Report.
Hi, Yeah, the swinging blade trap is a very common one in Indiana Jones and Tomb Rader games as well. Sometimes I've noticed I have had Lara Croft crawl under them, or sometimes I have had to have her try and jump over them. Sometimes the only way to avoid them is time your run just right, or deactivate it. All depends on the game, specific level, and how hard the trap is. As far as those annoying lasers on SL I hav4 the perfect trap that matches up. Some treasure hunting games use dart traps. You enter a room and it begins shooting darts at you. You have to either have to jump the darts or deactivate the trap.

Re: [Audyssey] ninja turtle game
Hi Dark, Yeah, I still like the TMNT beat-m-up games too. I always thought Bebop and Rock Steady were too whimpy. Though, according to the tv series they were always pretty stupid anyway so a smart turtle should be able to clean their clock easily. As long as you avoided their blaster fire you could kick butt, and of course rescue April O'neal. When it came to cool battle the battles against Krang and Shredder were ultra cool. Let us just say my Mom and Dad couldn't have given me enough quarters to finish playing those arcade coin ops so they usually got the games for Christmas or something. Oh, and where is my slice of pizza dude? I'll have the peperoni with cream cheese pizza, and extra sossage. Lol! Dark wrote: Sounds cool!

When it is done you should still be able to gather gems, gold coins, fight big ugly spiders, slithery snakes, and some kind of undead creature or creatures.
