About this piece of text: "Duke Nukem 2 was released around the same time, however the game appears to be a hasty upconvert of one which was produced originally in 16-color EGA."

I'm not sure if I'm reading that right. Does the word "one" refer to the original Duke Nukem game? Either way, it seems to imply Duke Nukem 2 utilizes VGA and a 256 colour palette, which it does not; it's just 16 colours (with a different palette for the intro alone).

[edit] Spin-offs / Rip-offs

Could warrant a mention of engine licensee Onesimus (someone has since done so), Epic feel-alike Xargon and blatant copycat Vinyl Goddess from Mars. (Vixen, on the other hand, appears to be an inspiration to the whole transforming-babe-platformer genre.)

Except that, according to Moby Games, Vixen was released in 1988. It's possible Jill of the Jungle was inspired by Vixen. But then again, it could'a been inspired by any number of other things, movies, TV shows, comics, or otherwise, I guess. ~ Doc Lithius 12:01, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

It also might be worth mentioning that Jill warranted a level dedicated to her in Epic Pinball!
