    REPTON 
     
    Ok, it's green bonz time again, and if you're expecting your regular 
    fix this month then you are not likely to be disappointed. 
     
    I'll kick off first by honouring my promise last month.  On the disc 
    is a filename called I.KISEI which is a REPTON INFINITY screen file 
    and will therefore ONLY work with with copies on Repton Infinity.  The 
    screens themselves are much the same as the REPTON 3 version except 
    for the following ... 
     
    Inert Fungus: There are 2 types of fungus, normal and inert.  The  
                  inert fungus will not spread as long as you do not 
                  collide with it.  If a monster hits the inert fungus 
                  then the monster changed into a grave.  The inert 
                  fungus is almost identical to the normal in appearance 
                  so watch out! 
     
          Graves: The graves release spirits approx. every 25 seconds. 
                  The graves always release spirits to the EAST of  
                  themselves.  If the square to the EAST is blocked by 
                  anything except space it will not release any spirits. 
     
    Although Chris Richardson was kind enough to supply his "fixed" 
    version of the TROG screens they were (in his own words) "a bit 
    messy".  This months disc contains another updated version of the TROG 
    screens, this time updated by the author himself - they all work (or 
    so he says).  Filename = R.TROG 
     
    REPTON SCREEN COMMENTS 
     
    User 994: I am stuck on the first screen on both.  The screens 
              generally are great.  I used to like Repton when I could 
              complete the first few screens, but now I'm starting to 
              dispise the little green git.  I think it is because I am 
              not that good at the game anymore. 
     
    User 8CT: Excellent - I did quite well with this one, I got to screen 
              G but I am having trouble passing this one.  I think the 
              invisable walls were a bit nasty on screen F and there were 
              too many spirits to run away from which made screen F take a 
              long time to complete.  The egg that isn't an egg fooled me 
              but I thought is was a good idea.  I like the review that 
              the 1st 3 passwords spell (UIM, IS, RUBBISH).  hope to see 
              more screens in the future. 
     
    COMPETITION 
     
    Well, nobody has claimed the prize attached to the BLOG repton screens 
    yet so it looks like my tenner is safe.  For all members who hate 
    repton, I have thought up another competition about designing am 8BS 
    logo - no prize though. 
     
    MORE SCREENS 
     
    And now the moment you have all been waiting for .... yes we have some 
    more screens, and I think these ones are the most original to date.  
    Sent in by 2J3 (C J Richardson) the screens are under the filename 
    R.2J3REP and can be loaded into REPTON as normal.  Enjoy yourselves 
    playing this - the screens have all been tested so there should be no 
    problems with missing keys and inaccessable diamonds etc.  Just one 
    thing though .... I though the ambulances were meant to help people 
    .... in these screens they chase you away .... 
     
    If anyone else has designed repton screen(s) then please send them in 
    - I have none lined up for issue 14, so unless you would like to go 
    without you had better get designing ... or is this the end of the 
    line for 8BS' repton section (please!!!).  I have still yet to receive 
    a new game designed on the repton blueprint program - has anyone the 
    necessary skills??
