Hi Will, First, I have actually tried Che's way of doing pre-ordered Beta's with Montezuma's Return and it ended in disaster. Granted that was mainly in part do to events out of my control, but now all those people who trusted me, purchased in good faith, got burned because I have to replace their product with something else. Second, I will not charge for the new side-scroller. Again it was not their fault, and if anyone is to blame at all for this it is big companies and their copyrights. We can't challenge them on an equal footing, and I've learned not to try and sell anything with a copyrighted name attached. Honestly though this might have all been for the best in the long run. The new game I am working on may actually have more replay value for you and everyone else. The older Montezuma's Revenge game was showing its age, and isn't able to satisfy customers that have been exposed to the way things are done now. However, to be perfectly honest my rendition of the Montezuma's Revenge style game wasn't totally true to the original either. Some things were much harder in the original. There were no potions to get health points back. If you touched a monster in any way shape or form you were dead as a door nail. Perhaps if I had stuck to an exact clone you would not have been as disappointed with the game. I see how I have done that game a disservice just by not doing an exact clone of it. On the other hand I can hear it now. This game is too hard, I get touched by a monster, and I die. Can you make it easier?
