mcgeezer - I love your game Bomb Jack Beer Edition. I just suck at it and it's not because it's too difficult. I really never played it or the other version before so I'm fairly new to it. It's in my rotation of games to play when I make the time to play games.
I'll tell you what I love most about it. It's a finished and complete game that feels like it's straight out of an Arcade rom for mame of something. The graphics, gameplay, music. mechanics and feel. You got it all and you nailed it.
Well done.
