OK, heres the thing - I dont have the knowledge, or time, to create the levels Id like for this really gr8 mini-game idea I have. But i think my idea would be successful with all TR fans, and plus id love to play these levels myself=)
So if anyone is interested in making the levels, heres my ideas...

STORY:
The story is based on the myth of the 13 Crystal Skulls from ancient Aztec mythology. Some of these have actually been discovered, in reality, and are held in musems around the world, but the rest are yet to be found. Once all 13 are re-united, most likely in the sun pyramid, they will reveal all the knowledge of the universe and meaning of life. There is also rumour of using the skulls to aid in teleportation. Finally, part of the myth suggests that the Atlanteans created the crystal skulls for the Aztecs and they were brought to them by the 'god' Quetzalcoatl, the feathered sperent.

LEVELS:
Lara could start her adventure having to steal the already found skulls from the museums; I know one is in Paris, another in London and one in a Spanish museum. They could be the first three/four levels, sort of cross between Venice TR2, TR3 London and TR5 VC Headqrts etc.
Next Lara would have to find the missing skulls in Peru, Mexico and Brazil, searching the rain forest temples, pyramids and tombs. Most of these would be guarded, as they are now either tourist attractions or off-limist to the public - probably because within them lie more mystical artifacts that the public arent allowed to get their hands on!
The last level(s) could be smth like the Great Pyramid escape in TR1, only with the famous ancient Aztec God Quetzalcoatl after Lara, as a snake/dragon type boss. Or alternatively, if the Atlantean part of the myth is used, the last level could be Atlantis-related (altho this has been done alot now)

So what do u think? Of course, the whole idea would still be credited to me but whoever creates the levels will of course take credit for that

I think this would make a serioulsy good game, even if it is short! Anyone interested ???

This would be a great game indeed, but I already have enough problems with my own.

There aren't many museums in Portugal, and the ones that exist aren't very famous, so that is very unlikely Misaki.

PS: Queres juntar-te ao meu projecto? Estou a fazer uma sequência de cerca de 30 níveis para um jogo chamado Tomb Raider: The Return of Lara Croft, se estiveres interessada, envia-me um e-mail e eu conto-te os pormenores todos.
