Halloween Hijinks

Sorry if this is posted in the wrong place. Wasn't sure which forum to use so I went with "General"
I am developing a little game I intend to release as freeware. It is Halloween themed but I didn't get my game finished in time (which is extremely frustrating since I was so close.) At any rate I still intend to finish it since I am so close (pretty much all that's left is to improve the enemy's AI and then add some sounds.)
You can get the latest build from www.moon-doggie.netfirms.com
Right click on the download link and choose "Save Target As." When you unzip the package, you should install the font provided. The system requirements are a 3D video card and DirectX 7. The instructions are simple and anyway provided in the game itself.
Let me know of any technical problems. For example, there is a major bug in the AI which will crash the game if the enemy gets stuck in a corner (like I said, gotta work on that.)
Meanwhile though think about what I can do to retool the game so that it isn't Halloween specific anymore. I figure I should change that aspect of the game before submitting to download sites. Note however that I really want to keep most of the art assets (the enemies, the cemetery objects, etc.) Obviously retooling will require I dump/replace some stuff, but the less that changes the better.
