A few hours of hacking to get "walk through walls" (and free movement), and then some autostitching. The sprites are messed up.
-
Four attachments per post is too few!
-
Last two from world 1.
-
The first in each of worlds 2, 3 and 4. That leaves 27 still to map, plus the fixing up.

I do like how images that are too wide automatically open in a new window when you try to expand them. I was afraid I would end up with a huge horizontally scrolling page.

I *knew* the graphics reminded me of something, and Wikipedia confirmed it for me: this game is basically a port of "Fury of the Furries", a PC/Amiga game but with the Pac Man license. That takes me back to my teen years when I used to read a computer gaming magazine from France called Joystick and which made me quite envious because the Amiga seemed to get so many interesting platformers compared to the PC.
Anyway, great work as usual. I wish I could come up with "walk through walls" codes myself.

Yea, this new layout for the forums is much nicer then the old system. I too enjoy the way pictures are shown now. Good work on the maps. I notice some still have the magenta color, does the Game Gear emulator let you toggle backgrounds and see magenta as a transparency, or do you have to use a separate utility like you have to do with the SNES using vSNES with the zSNES emu?
Back in High School I had an art class that used Amiga computers. They were great, and of course we played games on it any chance we could get :)

The magenta is bits that I didn't cover when automapping. Several of the levels crop the top by 7 pixels, which I restored where it was easy to do so, but there are still a few holes; these are just the "rushes", with screwed up sprites and animated parts. I spent about 5 minutes per map so far.

I've posted the first two worlds on my website:

As usual, Jon is welcome to post them here, but I'm too lazy to email them.
Edit: three worlds done, one left. I like fast mapping :)
-
...sigh...
Fine, I'll download them from the link.
-
I finished it this evening (so it's no longer "in progress"). I can email it if you want! Most people would prefer not to have to get files via multiple emails in Hotmail...
-
Can't you .ZIP or .RAR them up and send them?
Sometimes I'm a lazy bum too.
And don't set a bad example for new contributors! :P

Grr, OK then. (It helps that they're actually really small, averaging less than 10KB each.)
