Right, just a quicky then, this was posted before what has quickly become know as 'The bastard hack from Jan 09'.

As I mentioned it in a couple of pieces on my site and in my Action Biker thread, I thought I'd buung it up to see if I caould temp anyone to visit (or re-visit???) the graphical side of it.

Please consider it a Beta still. It's mute and much of it looks bad. Those are the bits that I drew.

Psyren did all the stuff that doesn't look like an Atari VCS game that's been drawn by a 2 year old.

There are full instructions from the main menu and if you need help navigating the main menu it's cursors and space (or X) all the way.

If you've not played a Magic Knight game before, think point and click without a point. Or click.

I will be revisiting the Underlord code at some point (I dare say I'll tidy it up after Action Biker) so any suggestions or problems (or praise, I'm not adverse to praise..... Bugger!) would be most welcomed.

Last time I tried this the menus were so slow it was painful (obviously a bug). That's now fixed, bit the pain is still there Smiley I've realized I just don't have the patience any more these...

"Help me you stupid green bunny!"
"Object? Object? I gave it a frickin' carrot. You want blood as well? Here"
*Tam Toucan slashes wrists.

Nice, and I can feel myself getting drawn in....but I fear I must put my health and sanity first..

BTW If I switch to full screen it exits (I'm running at 1920x1200)

Haha - It's all quite logical. To me at least.
Though getting down the well is one of the more difficult puzzles in the first part of the game.

Yeah, actually, I noticed that when I ran it earlier, I thought it was my PC.

I'll have a look into it and upload a fix.

Yup, and sound and a little tweakage here and there.

Not a bunch left to do coding wise for sure
