crab:  I agree with you to some extent.  I dont want to get rid of it completely, but i do need to do something about it

shu:  Thanks man.  I tried getting the new dig dug for a DS emulator i downloaded, but it is so screwed up.  I can't even read text on the screen.

Darion:  your not the only one to have a gripe with the main character, although the other people had a problem with it for the exact opposite reason that you stated.  others said that he was too plain compared to everything else.  so i'm still confused on what to do about that.

Helm:  On the side of the original arcade machine, it indeed depicts dig dug as a human.  that was straight from the creators, so you can't argue too much.  but as far as your last post said....i'd say the same thing if i weren't Mormon


more progress still to come

 Nice remake there Indigo. I really love the overall shading of the sprites. PWNAGE remake will be the result of my prediction. However, there are some minor stuff I would suggest. The dirt's exterior could use a smoother gradient to make it appear  sun-ish daylight high tempertured enviroment.

Haha! Wish I could do summat like that in 30 minutes. Looks ace, although the lines on the stomach seem a bit too contrasty like his belly-button is a separate thing rather than an extension of his body.

thanks guys

DrDerekDoctors:
well - I guess thats a good thing since it really isn't his belly button.  He's getting speared with a harpoon gun attached to a pump.  the pic depicts him starting to blow up like a balloon

Ah, it's because that spear is the same colour as his belly that I was confused.

eek - only 57 hours left of the compo!  I'd post some updates (which there are lots of) except for i have absolutely no time.  I will once it's all over on the 25th
