[comp.sys.next] Games & Xnext

1.  BlastApp - Is there anyway to reset the starting level?  I don't want to
always have to use the "Restart At..." button.  
    A weird thing happened the other day when I was playing it.  The sound
got out of sync with the action.  I would hear the blasts about 2 seconds 
late.  

2.  In the latest NeXTConnection price list, there is a Recreational
program called CultureShock 1.0.  Has anyone tried this program?

3.  For the last couple of weeks, I have had Xnext available as a single file
on calvin.stanford.edu.  Unfortunately, this file might not be available for
a short while in the upcoming weeks.  (We are switching servers, and will 
lose about 1.8 Gig of disk for a week or two).  So you should either get
the file ASAP, or plan to wait a week or so.  Sorry.

No, but I called and asked them about it.  From the description, it
sounds like it's basically xmahjongg with bells and whistles.  I think
the icons are supposed to be "events in the 90s" and each pair is
supposed to give off a charactaristic sound when it's matched.

Yeah, there's NeXTmj for free, but since CultureShock is only $25 I
might buy it anyway.
