Subject: arcane design vs. willy

 

oddly enough (or not!), yahoo isn't letting me
read any messages here, although i got andrew's
message via automatic email anyway...

here's the
situation, bearing in mind i'm getting less time for game
design, and i have recently taken up nintendo game
editing as well! (turncoat!!! :)

* MM: manic
person - beyond the mines

i'm very pleased with
this, it's half finished, going pretty well although i
haven't touched it in a good while. should be finished by
the end of this year, no problems.

* JSW Geoff
Mode: space doubt

this is still frozen at two
rooms. i'd like at least 40, but i need help getting the
patch vector routines going. any offers? i simply don't
have time to learn z80 hacking, much as i would like
to. i'd happily make this game a colabboration with
someone else as well, if they're interested, just to
ensure it gets finished.

* JSW128: death
tv

will be finished, it's about half done, but it needs a
lot of work if the second half is going to be up to
the standards of the first. i'm guessing some time
before the end of 2002, possibly sooner.

JSW128: willy goes down the bog (?)

almost
definately cancelled. feel free to steal the title, i think
it would make a nice game.

* JSW128: strangel
2: the chaos engine

lacking inspiration,
although i have a few rooms down. on hiatus, with a view
to cancelling if things don't start really
flowing.

* JSW128: mind control

almost definately
cancelled. 3 or 4 rooms will probably be copied into other
games.

* JSW128: where's woody (Special
Edition)

this will happen sometime next year no doubt. if
anyone wants to contrubute music or title artwork, it
would be a massive help.

* JSW48: where's woody
lite (?)

this will also happen, but will be
derived from WW - SE, probably released as a
set.

* HH: henry's whored (?)

it's a great title
(IMO :), but no work has started. possibly cancelled.
if anyone would like to use the title they are more
than welcome.

:)
