Subject: Re: Maria vs. some bastards
Hey!
As all you guys here at the group may have noticed, i don't post
terribly much, in fact this is my first. I'm so unsociable. But after
playing Maria vs some bastards for about 10 minutes i felt i should
come forward and say Woah! This is how a Willy game is done! There
are some excellent games out there (i'm a particularly big fan of the
down and out trilogy) but this is simply mind blowing.
Marvelous trickery involved in this masterpeice, and above all (well
above all for me anyway) a brilliant colour scheme which made the
original Willy game so appealing to me as a young child. Colours is
what Willy is aaaall about. I bow down to you sir.
While i don't have the brain power to even think about making a game
myself, i strongly admire all of you who are keeping that happy
memory in my childhood alive and breathing, and i feel that now i've
made myself known, it would be nice of me to speak up a bit more. So
i will. Long live Miner Willy.
J-P
