Feel free to post anything you like here, Im fine with it...;)
As far as the 'backstory' to the whole incident (as to why I cant finish the game)...I wrote Don Bluth LTD as I was about halfway thru making the first level, sent them a few screen shots and a link to my page where I have the art up, etc...
http://www.geocities.com/mkhthacres/SpaceAce2.html
...their reply (from a rep on his staff, NOT from him personally, of course!) was to ask me NOT to do the game, as they dont approve of folks using their characters, etc.
I stated that this was a 'fan game', NOT for profit...they stated they 'didnt care about that', they just didnt want me doing it.
They didnt even want to see what I had finished so far, didnt even want to LOOK at it, I was pretty disappointed, as the whole reason I had started the project was to get Don Bluths opinion on it (hell, if someone were to do something that involved as a fanwork based on MY characters, and they asked me to look it over, I would be honored and THRILLED...but not so as far as Bluth was concerned, I guess.)
Anyway, to make a long story short (I know, I know...'Too Late!') I gave up on it, as the main reason I STARTED it all was to get some feedback from Bluth, and since he was so 'non-interested' I figured 'why bother?'
Still, I DID actually create a fully playable Level One to the game...and I learned how to do it, so I will endevor to create my OWN animated movie game, like Space Ace/Dragons Lair, using my OWN characters from my STARtoons comics instead!

Thanks again for the positive response...pretty much, thats actually all I had hoped for from Don Bluth...;)
I guess you could say I've lost a lot of interest/respect for Mr Bluth since all this started...too bad, his animation still rocks, but his production company are sortta a bunch of 'downers'...;)
