Pfft. It's been in "development" for so long that I wonder if it's just vapourware.

IIRC, it was Jon Wells coding and Feekzoid doing the music.

I think there's something about the C64 version on Games That Weren't but don't hold your breath for it being done.....well apart from the music which did make it onto the Last Ninja 3 music CD available from Worcester's answer to Delboy - KENZ! :P :P

Im pretty sure the music is available on HVSC collection, there is only really two tunes and a couple of mixes of the main theme. I saw Jon Wells code hack of LN2 and he was getting there with it...pity....

You are wise, young Penfold, but not wise enough... This was a NEW game, which was going to use Feekzoid's music. But it has a new game engine, new graphics... and a NEW CHARACTER TO CONTROL!

That's very likely. Though, it's a toss-up between whether the non-English people on here will work out the Penfold impression or the fishy references to young Andrew and his Merman persona. :D

Oooh, carrots! (As Penfold used to say)

Those jokes were awful, Paul. Well done :lol:


And Dan, yes, they spoke to Jon Wells about doing the new version and got all the source - but they started the game engine from scratch, using the old one as reference. The main aim was to make the diagonal controls easier.
