Well done Aardvarko! (And it seems well done to me for making a
recognisable ascii dopefish!)

It`s in a few other apogee games too... The only one that comes to mind
right now is Wacky Wheels, a Mario Kart style racer!

The picture I based my ascii on was the one from Quake, which I nabbed
using my Quake level editor... then I scaled it up a lot and asciified it!

I`m glad you recognised my dopefish... :)

Bye,
