HI Carl =)
Wow small world!!! Yeah they charge £3 per level which is a bit steep so it took me a while to unlock them all (later levels were £3 for 5)
Believe me when I say I have nothing but positive things 2 say about the game (well apart from no Peter Gynt suite during the game)
Some of the sprites look georgeous like the mutant telephones the banks and of course Eugene!
We have a lot of Miner holic's where I live in Scotland and I would show off the new levels as they were unlocked!!!
It took me a bit of time to master the warehouse, the timing has to be spot on once more but slightly different than the speccy version I am used 2
I think it bodes well on the 3510 due the nice soft key's, however I would love 2 play it on my Sharp GX10i with it's nice big bright screen.
There's an idea for you Carl
Hat's off 2 you all the best =)
Allan

> Yeah that's the one, it's actually not 2 bad considering.
It's the version I wrote! You're the first person I've heard from who
actually bought it. I found the price the distributer (MonsterMob) was
charging to be extortionate (speaking for myself and not on behalf of
Jester, etc., etc.).
Of all the phones the 3510i is my favourite version - it's the only one
of the releases to feature a parallax background (although the new
updated version have this on other models).
Carl.
