The game could do with a spear!

Hai all.

I was thinking a Spear could introduce a new mechanic, being able to melee attack from the back rank!

It wouldn't be over-bearingly powerful of course. Is it possible for such a thing to be implemented?

Extremely impressive new sprites!

I'd just change the names of some the characters a bit though. Their a bit too normal (e.g. Roger :P)

Alas poor kitty :-(

I too lost a kitty long ago to old age. Took 5 years to get over it and get a new kitty! (incidentally 'new kitty' looks virtually identical to 'old kitty'!)

I think a film that should become compulsory viewing for everyone on Earth is Akira.

At the end of it I was left thinking "What the hell just happened!"
for 10 minutes.

First Matrix film was easily the best. The others had great special effects and action scenes, but not much else for me.

Looking back on it, its so incredibly cheesy (your fighting the wizard Morkar for gods sake!) and shamelessly generic. Thats...
