Hi Dan,

Sorry for nicking your graphics, I might go back and redo some of them but my art is so shite and all the new graphics were done by my fiance and it was a struggle for me to get her to do them in the first place.

The level design is all from the original version. This was my first graphical game I`ve wrote on a PC. I used C++ with DirectX 7.
I`ll let you know when it`s finished and send you c copy.

Yours

Nick

P.S. What other projects have you worked on? I thinking of doing Jet Set Homer!!! Have you seen the Simpsons episode when Homer has to look after Mr Burns` house???? I`m thinking of using that and JSW as inspiration.

Just had a look at Perils of Willy and think it's pretty good. The
levels are well designed, though they all have the same tile
graphics. It'd be nice to have different tile graphics for each level?

I also noticed that you've nicked a couple of sprites from my JSW2
remake, heheh, not that I mind of course ;-)

Strange choice of music I have to say, but sounds pretty good. Out of
interest, what did you program it in?

Let us know when it's finished :-)

Dan
