Great looking game.  Damn good job.  Makes me want to make some games too.  I've never gotten around to doing that.

Pity my comp can't run it.  Maybe my next comp.

edit - How long did it take you to write the 194x game?  Were you able to rip anything directly from original versions, or did you produce this one from scratch?

...I started thinking about the game and Construction Kit when my wife and me were in hospital awaiting our first baby last xmas. The game engine is written from scratch and is about 7000 lines of code so far. It took me about two month to write. The GFX was recreated based on screenshots of the Arcade original...

Hmm, waiting in hospitals sure can get one thinking (in fact, it can make me almost desperate to do some hard work just to avoid the current situation).  So you had your first kid at xmas?  Sounds like a good present for the family.  Nice.

Two months (presumably part time) just after having your first kid sure sounds like good going.  A really productive hobiest.  Great work, and what a great contribution sharing it with the community!  Thanks a lot!
