I remember I've planned montezuma levels on paper and i used lots of fire. :) I was 10 years old approximately. :)

old times :) on atari, montezuma's revenge waS INCOMPLETED AND IMPOSSIBLE TO FINISH. C-64 VERSION WAS ATARI'S PRELIMINARY MONTY :) i think it will be fair: joe's right elbow and left foot :)

i have more similar ideas in my mind. for example: ninja from bruce lee, sumo from bruce lee, skull from montezuma's revenge... ;)

this guy is pedro from preliminary monty... the one from montezuma had another hat ;-)  
  
just the same as you, i enjoyed this game on atari as a child. there were two versions - "full" but impossible to finish montezuma's revenge, with animated intro and music. and final boss (impossible to beat). this game was never finished.  
  
the montezuma most on other platforms (like c-64) is very simplified version. on atari it was known as preliminary monty. this is the one with levels from 1 to 9.   
  
the story behind this was something like that.  robert  jaeger (or jeger maybe) started to write this big montezuma on atari. he presented unfinished game to some publishers on computer expo or sth similar. they were interested, but they demanded game had to fit in 16k of ram. presented demo required much more memory.   
  
 robert  agreed and sold the project. i don't know precisely whether he was the one who made this simplified game or was it publisher. all in all, the game released as "montezuma" on multiple platforms (and known as preliminary monty on atari) is not the game author initially planned.  
  
meanwhile, this unfinished demo, which was presented somehow leaked out and was widely distributed as "montezuma's revenge" on 8-bit atari. it's hard to say if it was the author behind it or some 3rd party.  
  
more or less, this is the story :-)

there is a remake of montezuma's revenge with new levels, some of these are hardcore :)

i didn't know about it :-) i'll give it a try for sure ;)  
  
regarding getting into the score box in montezuma, yeah, sure i did know about it. you could also get to the items box and "clone" any item you wanted by simple jumping ;)

i gave it a try... and i must say, that i have played it some time ago, but it slipped out of my mind. nice, but very linear and in some places very difficult. i think that's why author had implemented immortality. otherwise it would be very frustrating... :-)  
  
anyway - i miss the montezuma's revenge atmosphere. different sounds, better colors, more dirty and so on ;)

maybe you're right  Piter  :) but later, after some practice, it should be less frustrating :) boulder dash in some cases is way more annoying sometimes ;D   
montezuma again! is a good project and opening the doors, possibility of creating new levels :) i think, if this project will stay alive, we can expect something like bd ck :)
