>I'm Adban, the designer (all artistic
aspects, including music, but I don't know a thing about
programming) of "Willy's Afterlife" and "A Bulgarian Requiem".


Hello mate. Sorry it's taken so long to reply, but I'd
forgotten about it, to be honest - it was left in a text
file on my desktop, then 'backed up' when I
reformatted Windows, and I didn't discover it until late last
night.

>I understand your feelings of frustration...
specially if you have played "We Pretty".

Not so
much frustration with the difficulty, more with the
fact that getting anywhere is not as fun as JSW was,
though this is merely my own personal opinion based on
my lack of knowledge (or interest) of the JSW
quirks.

>I try to made my games with that spirit in mind; I
want you to explore, to enjoy the screens, and to walk
around enjoying the atmosphere. Of course, it's
difficult to see all the screens, but that happened too in
JSW.

>I would like you to try my games, and post your
opinion here.

I have played BR a bit - I really
like the atmosphere, and I think the way Willy walks
with the cane (which is brilliant by the way) was what
gave me the idea for William Hartnell's (the first
Doctor) cane in Willy Who. I've not yet played Afterlife
properly, though, as things have been hectic of
late....

Cheers mate,

Carl.
