I had to install python, then pygame, then I figured the versions were too recent to run this, so I had to install older ones (if anybody wonders, python 2.5.4 + python 1.9.1). Then I had to create dummies for missing images, as other commenters say here.... So I could finally play the game. Meh.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Those two levels are actually quite fun, but of course no way to finish the game due to the missing assets.
