Hi Nicol, I know where you are coming from with the end of level sounds and menu beeps, but I removed them, because they didn't really seam to fit in with the other high quality sound effects. It is not really a console game, and I felt using gongs and things like that would fit in better with the temple of doom type of theme Angela apparently is in. As for the menu sounds I am examining possibilities. Allot of people didn't like the step sounds for menus, which is an idea I got from Tomb Raider, so I am looking at other possabilities for Beta 8.
