Cheapo overheating problem

[Proxima]

Sorry if the game running at 100% CPU causes anyone's computer to overheat.

That's all right. I think I'm OK now that I'm back on my own computer now in any case.  But before I left, we did manage to sort out my girlfriend's computer with the help of the bathroom fan

Wow, tight loops are so 80's man.

You shouldn't need to do loops like that in Windows. &#A0;Try either the hi-res timers, or perhaps even WM_TIMER could do.

All right, I wrote the perfect game loop that uses minimal CPU time. It's implemented in the new game and running at 60 frames per second. It uses barely any CPU time (on a 3Ghz machine) so it plays nice with other Windows programs that happen to be running.
It's actually a user customizable loop, so if the user actually wants to use 100% CPU then there is a setting for it. I know, that's retarded.

I don't suppose we'll ever see this in Cheapo, though...

"dimwits" looks like a very nice Lemmings clone.      

Is there any plan to have  "skin" support for the characters ?
  (i.e.  use the original lemmings SKIN, or some holiday lemmings SKIN).

I look forward to the release of this game.

Yes, that will be possible.
