Re: A89: Re: Re: Survey for the next version of PlusShell




I think that's what I was trying to say...  If someone made a better Mario89 and a level editor for
it, then they could also create a file called mlevel or mrolvl or something like that.  If someone
made StarFox89 and a level editor for it, they could also make a file called stfxlvl or strfoxl or
something close to that.  That way only the level editor can open those files, and no one can
"cheat" with hacking or such to make their games/levels harder/easier to play.
