Known Bugs
As sprites are bigger in order to respect original comic/Tv animation, heads may be cut by the ceilings on OpenGL port.
- "POSS" caracter size requires a minimum value of "88" from floor to ceiling.
- "SARG" caracter size requires a minimum value of "104" from floor to ceiling.
It is advised not play in "fast monster" mode as "SARG" caracter didn't have a speed matching with the original TV animation one.
