Short: Cool Worms maps from El Spartan Author: odin@dcs.qmw.ac.uk (Anthony Potamitis via Andrew Elia) Uploader: odin dcs qmw ac uk (Andrew Elia) Type: game/data Architecture: generic El Spartan Maps (from the artist formerly known as "Small Fry") --------------------------------------------------------------- Well, here we are once again with another collection of Worms maps drawn by the inimitable (well, if you discount children aged five) Anthony Potamitis. It seems that despite receiving worldwide acclaim by having his previous collection of maps (Small Fry Maps Vol 1) published on the Amiga Format cover CD (although it seems no-one believed him when he mentioned it), he wasn't too happy about being called "Small Fry". Wonder why ? Therefore, he has chosen a more apt (albeit laughable) title for himself for this collection of maps. Hence the change of title (too many crappy Charlton Heston films, I think). So here we are with another quality collection of Worms maps that have been hand-filched (and occasionally drawn) by the man himself... Battle - It's symbolic, isn't it ? It's the battle between El Spartan's worms, and the Hotshots. Quite how the Lemmingsesque scenery found its way in there, I don't know... Space - A wonderful piece of artwork that must have taken an extremely long five minutes to produce. Surely that's not based on a picture pinched from the DPaint art disc is it ? Enterprise - Well, it's Rushmore, really. It's just that a dirty great big starship has decided to crash into it. Subtle. Very subtle. Whether or not Anthony is a trekkie, I don't know, but I'm sure he'd want to apologise for insulting anyone who is. Graveyard - Dead worms. Lots of them. In fact, it's probably the effect of a major shock -like Anthony telling them that it was his own work, for example. Well, I certainly can't recognise any of it. Thinking about it, neither can anyone else. We were just told that it's a graveyard. Relics - It's amazing what a bit of palette altering will do really. Those of you who were wanting more [sick buckets] after Anthony's last offering, Greece, may be delighted to know that there are some slightly Greek elements to this map. It's astonishing what living in Southgate (or at least fairly close to it) can do to some people! Naturally, the ever-popular columns from Lemmings have been slipped in once more (bet you didn't notice after he changed the palette so cunningly). As always, enjoy... but preferably at the expense of someone else's worms! Be prepared to bust your Aminet CDs in disgust when El Spartan will return to delight us with more maps... you have been warned!
