"The game may have taken five"
"years but the hard stuff was"
"all done in three days, with"
"the help of caffeine        "
"tablets.                    "
" "
"More and more new features  "
"were added towards the end  "
"that are hardly featured in "
"FoX. Believe it or not,     "
"included is code to make    "
"Windows run error free.     "
" "
"Nah, just kidding. No one   "
"could do that.              "

"George didn't do any of the "

"no good at coding that kind "
"of thing. In other words, he"
"was too lazy.               "
" "
"Anyway, we hope that these  "

"little more enjoyable.      "

" "
" "
"PHOTO  George and Steve when"

" "
"Q. Don't you think using    "
"libraries was cheating?     "
" "
"A. Yep.                     "
" "
" "
"Q. How did you get DQB and  "
"BWSB to work together?      "
" "
"A. Hours of hard work (TZ   "
"had to write PUSH AX and POP"
"AX and he is quite slow).   "
" "
" "
"Q. How do you keep yourself "
"motivated to work on a      "
"project for so long?        "
" "
"A. Hard drugs and lack of   "
"originality to think of     "
"something new.              "
" "
" "
"Q. I heard TZ is in some    "
"bands. Who are they?        "
" "
"A. TZ plays in a punk band  "
"called British Beef, and    "
"another band called The     "
"Luminaries. You can visit   "
"British Beef online at      "
"british-beef-online.co.uk   "
" "
" "
"Q. Was the last question a  "
"blatant plug?               "
" "
"A. Yep.                     "
" "
" "
"Q. No, really, do you think "
"using libraries was         "
"cheating?                   "
" "
"A. Yep.                     "
" "
" "
"Q. Why did the last two     "
"questions have the same     "
"answer?                     "
" "
"A. Go away.                 "
" "
" "
"Q. How far would you go out "
"of your way to crush an     "
"empty cigarette packed under"
"foot?"
" "
"A. Normally about 2M        "
" "
" "
"Q. Why did you rip so much  "
"of the graphics?            "
" "
"A. We're guessing you       "
"haven't seen us draw...     "
" "
" "
"Q. What can you tell me     "
"Teacher Smash Up?           "
" "
"A. That the deputy head     "
"didn't appreciate being the "
"boss at the end...          "
" "
" "
"Q. How did you do that      "
"transparent thing on the    "
"menu?"
" "
"A. Black magic mostly.      "  
" "
" "
"Q. I found a bug...         "
" "
"A. No you didn't."
" "
" "
"Q. So you actually think    "
"using libraries is cheating?"
" "
"A. Yep."
" "
" "
"And finally...              "
" "
"Q. Will there ever be a FoX "
"II?"
" "
"A. Heck, no!                "
