It's being programmed in Blitz Basic and I only used it about a
month prior to writing JSWII. Still don't know all of BB's
capabilities but it is a lot more powerful than say DIV Games Studio
which is what I used to write my other versions in.

I'm not familiar with any other programming language yet and don't
have as much time as I used to with writing games :( Which is why
I'm willing to pass the source code to someone else.. or even make
the source available on a website (source forge).

Dan.
