Hi Dark, In deed. Audio Berzerk would be cool. Although, I have a few arcade ideas that would be better as an example of the genre.
For example, one game I'd like to create is Star Wars: Death Star Mission. That was a simple arcade game based on the final battle in New Hope when Luke Skywalker flew his X-Wing into the Death Star and blew it up. Its a simple enough concept, but with realistic Star Wars music and sounds we could make a kick ass game out of it. For one thing we could design it more as an X-Wing flight sim with 3d mechanics and some realistic physics to improve upon the original game. The only worry here is the copyright issues. However, it is a good idea all things considered. As for the Montezuma's Revenge remake from retro remakes I've got it on one of my backup drives. If you want it I'll Sendspace a copy to you. It is actually pretty decent, and I've considered asking the author if I could use his music and sounds in a project of my own. It has pretty cool background music and sounds and I've been told the graphics are decent as well. Cheers!
