With their usual Lightspeed, the Lighttech crew have made several updates to their games. New setup files for Light Cars and Light Locator are available which squash a number of bugs that have been reported over the last month.

The major update news, however, concerns version 1.1 of the new Treasuremania game. The new version not only fixes several major bugs (including the dreaded Runtime error 91), but also the game audio has recieved some major changes which help reduce all the confusion surrounding sterrio effects. There are a couple of gameplay additions as well, so be prepared to learn just how dangerous a business fishing in shark infested waters can be.

You can find the new version of Treasuremania, as well as all of Lighttech's other fantastic free games by visiting the Lighttech interactive website.

Good luck in your fishing for treasures.

Our souls with high music ringing; O men! It must ever be
That we dwell in our dreaming and singing, A little apart from ye. (Arthur O'Shaughnessy 1873.)

Indeed, Though personally Treasuremania is the only one of their games that I've had bug issues with, ----- though even if I hadn't, I'd stil want the gameplay changes because they're fun! especially the chain tangling bit and all the shark shinanigons.

Well, gameplay wise, you no longer lose a life when your chain gets tangled, and you can now get eaten by a shark if you try to catch it in your fishing net. Treasure chests no longer appear slap bang on the cliffs and Sterrio effects are greatly improved, so knowing where things are is much easier, in general the gameplay is a lot more balanced.

but just check the "What's new" section of lighttech for a full list yourself.
