I used to know someone who had an Amiga and was for the most part the
hall arcade game master.

Abuse reminded me immediatly of some of the Amiga sid-scrollers...but
better - you could actually play them (some Amiga games went all out for
graphics and sound...but playability of these games sucked)

Still, good job!  I like the game and the fact that Crack Dot Com included
a level editor along with the demo - shows marketting knowledge.
