Hi Duke,

The main reason the download is so large is because it includes 9 full length sound tracks.

The latest demo is in pretty good shape engine-wise, but as others have mentioned unfortunately the level design lets it down a bit.

NY - many thanks for your comments. I'll look into all the bugs and level glitches in due time. Thanks, as well, for your patience and understanding. Originally I had aimed to just release the material in some organised fashion (e.g., Wiki). This fast turned into an interactive experience, which the...

I resent the link and it didn't bounce, did you get it? Better be quick or it too will expire.

I will do it within the next few days. It would be great if someone had some space I could upload it to, because otherwise I'll be forced to send it via another temporary transfer service.

They're complete in the sense that they are playable from start to finish. They are incomplete in the sense that most of them remain largely untested and untweaked. In other words, they still require a lot of work to bring them up to the expectaions we originally had - most wont be as fun as I had h...

VikingBoyBilly,

Thanks for the comments. The "Level0x" music is for custom loaded levels. If you load the sample map provided, you'll hear it.

I should also add some background on the levels: Most levels (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8) are based on original Isis II levels. They were copied almost exactly, and then modified to be playable since many were just layouts. Some of the "existing levels" (1, 2) were tweaked & completed by Ceil...

Hi guys, a few comments on the recent posts: Ceilick , yes the yellow guys got harder. The v1.1 update took a few of them away, added more ammo, and made their damage less. Syllypryde , can you post the error log (was there one?). I've never had the game hang, ever. kuliwil , is 70MB a large downloa...

Syllypryde , 1. Well done! 2. It's not necessarily a suicide point. If you read the help (F1, via the menu screen) you'd find out that is the "Crazy Keen" power-up. The controls (left/right) are reversed, and run speeds & jump heights become random, and change quickly. It's possible i...

Hi guys, Thanks for the comments, I appreciate that you can see the game for the potential, despite the unfinished levels and few mechanics issues that are present. wiivn , The only time the game re-saves your progress is if you beat the star rating. This is probably something to think about how to ...

Bubbatom , You should only lose your health if you touch the degen item, which you shouldn't do unless you move right from the start. Try using the Pulsar (#3) on the hovers, since it passes through enemies. wiivn , Yes - regrettably the levels weren't fully tested. Indeed as it has been said befor...

wiivn, Thanks for the bug reports and info. I'll look into them. Apologies Level 3 was so hard - it wasn't the intention! I'll perhaps put together an update which fixes the bugs, and makes Level 3 passable. As you mentioned, some of the subsequent levels are short/easy - mainly because they are inc...
