Oh my God....

I was playing Descent against another player last night - following him
down a corridor on level 1.  Dave got well ahead of me and then suddenly
started accelerating away at great speed!  I reached the end of
the corridor but it was a dead end.

As Dave disappeared he sent me a message:

"Oh my God!  It's full of stars!"

It was heavily red-shifted (the text was in red!)

"Spooky" I thought.  So I went on to try and complete the level.
I grabbed the red key and pushed on the red door.  Suddenly a voice
sounded "I'm sorry Dave, I can't let you do that...."























:) for the humour impaired.

Methinks someone's been watching too many films...hey, what are all these
black things? They're all big and black and...My God! They're full of stars!

Makes me wonder what the Jupiter levels in the registered game are going to be like.  Rather than blowing up the reactor, you implode the planet!  Hmm, back to work, Doug.
