Suggestion - Adding the Demo mission to the main game
Hey, I first discovered this game on a CD off of a cereal box (lol). Part of my childhood growing up, and when I finally found the actual game it was something I'll never forget!

One thing that has bugged me though, is that the demo mission was really big and a very good mission. But there were alot of features that you weren't able to use such as some of the characters abilities. I presumed (even then as a kid) that the demo mission would be on the main game with all of the features unlocked, much to my suprise it wasn't even on the game!

So, I was wondering if it'd be possible to add the demo mission to the main game and if possible with all the characters abilities unlocked for that mission. I don't think it'd be that much work and you guys could include it as a 'new' feature as part of the steam release, would encourage alot of people to buy it for steam if they already own it on CD or on GOG etc.

Haha! I thought I was the only person that ever played that demo mission. Got it the same way, via a cereal box. Those were the days :)

Agreed! I think the demo level was somewhat similar to another mission in the main game, similar layout etc, but it was still different *enough*.

It might not be possible to add this demo directly to the Steam version. What we can do is to include it as a seperate app. Should we do that?
Its definately a great exclusive mission :)

Of course you should do that! More content is always good, and the demo is good.

From the time we bought gaming magazines because they came with a CD with +100demos on them.

Yes please! That would be amazing! Would that be an extra cost? I'd be willing to pay. I remember telling my parents at the time that the demo "taught me patience"

Anyone else rememeber the other great cereal demos from the same time? The Lucky Luke FPS and the Bionicle games, The Emperors New Groove and those Action Man games? Man I dont think ive ever enjoyed games as much lol

Well what's up Nordic Games? Are you working on releasing the demo level? Or has that idea totally been tossed away? I would be happy to hear any additional information.
