I spent an hour there! Add a mixture of no sleep, being kid at heart and a
stubborn Taurus, there was no way I was going to let this kids game beat me!

I went and got every part of that damn blueprint and thought it was great.
The graphics were great, the animation was great, the game play itself was
great, the sound was great. The whole experience was great.

>From a commercial point of view, interactive education games are big bucks
these days, and the more homes that get cable modems and the like, 7MB
isn't going to be that big. Throw in a few product placements (change the
fun park to Disneyland, and Egypt to McDonalds) and get some traffic
through the site and it would surely pay for itself and them some.


kind regards,

ps I don't know if I should admit It, but it took me 10 minutes to get
that time thing right :-)
