zymn, there you go being all defensive again. learn how to accept critisism. in the beginning, apples was trying to help you. evewn though it may have come off mean and faggot(ish), he was telling you that this was no better than your last one, (which it wasn't) so you would be thin headed enoughh to except it. i guess not.
im gonna tell you one last time.
THE GAME WAS NOT BETTER!
each item in the background looked like 1 or 2 lines
the death screen is not a hard thing to make
those do not count as graphics, they are pointless add-ons
if you want to make it better, make enemys, maybe add a story line, make a purpose to playing the game.
