Where it all began:



Ah yes, rememeber back the ol' days when we were so young, naive and stupid? Oh wait, that was just yesterday for some of us.

Anyway, I am going to locate the pics, as it looks like Chris dumped them from the PM site. I'll post them a little later, or maybe I'll have to make some new ones.

I must note that this is about a week before I joined the project, so I was about as knowledgable as anyone else. Although I did know who was working on it.

If you still have the sources, you could perhaps release this as free one-level nostalgia game for registered Snails owners, "Ye olde Snails" or something! :lol:

The background isn't a looping tile. It is one large image, just like the REAL Snails game.

However, I don't think there should be anyone working on this, as it would be a violation of properties owned by Peter, Jason and me. Ultimately, you would have to ask Peters permission, simply because everything you see in those pics are his.

I own the rights and properties to the Snails graphics, which as you can see are not in those pics at all.

Damn, please make it freeware if you do release it, I am very tempted to download Snails off of warez again... :(

My knowledge is only outdated in certain areas, but Jesus, don't take me TOO seriously on those things. 8)
