Creator learned the Backbone game editor when making Mini Swat

This is a little gem of a game for Amiga. José writes that Mini Swat game was created to learn the features of the game editor that the game is made in, which is Backbone that you can find on Aminet. The maker wanted to know how far he could go. If using small graphics, then he realize that he would gain speed. It also teach him into what kind of features he could add regarding the graphics level, scroll and events in Mini Swat.

The result became a bigger game than expected. For everyone to enjoy.
