Smila's knocked up an early vid :D

There are a few synch problems with the other players not 100% synched
to your screen yet, hence some dodgy looking collisions on the other
players but it's comimng on great guns :D

Willy tag is a great laugh.

One willy starts off pink and has to tough the other players turning
them pink.

Last man standing wins :D

Just one of the many games planned.

Sounds great!

I was thinking of doing something like this a while ago (before work
took over my life) just by tweaking my current JSW2 code in Blitz
Basic. Afterall, BB has online capabilities.

Good luck with it and let us all know when you get a version of it on
the net.

PS. I've got a good few ideas for online modes ;)

PPS. I know I haven't posted in a while, so it's good to see the
scene's still going strong :)

Dan.

And she's out :D

We released in conjunction with Way Of The Rodent's christmas special.

I've also upped a page on my own site.

Bear in mind, this is not an exact replica of the engine and rooms but
as near as damn it ;)

Certain concessions were made to make the game work and more
importantly be fun in multiplayer :D

The map is twice the size of JSW2 and there is a 1 player mode but
that is just for exploration purposes.

Very handy for honing those routes for the race games ;)

Anyway, hope you all enjoy.
