Hmmm, yeah. smilie It's like that in the first game too. How about you compare Spyro and Cynder to the trees. Thery're also a bit bigger then the apes now.
I like the cheetas and Hunter in this game. They look a bit like some of the characters that I have made up for the ps2 games that I hope to create when I'm older. smilie smilie smilie
