Subject: MM GBA screenshots
There are 25 screenshots of the MM 'update' on
Jester Interactive's site
(http://www.jesterinteractive.co.uk).
If you can't use Flash on your computer, then you
can look at the pictures
at:-
http://www.jesterinteractive.co.uk/images/jsw_mm/mm01.jpg
there are 25 pictures - mm01.jpg to mm25.jpg
The
screenshots do look fairly mediocre - there are several
caverns from the original MM (I thought this was an
update?), and the new caverns seem to be ordinary - no new
features at all (though that may be a good
thing...)
Someone on c.s.s. claimed that Andy Noble has coded the
GBA version. If this is true (he allowed Jester to
put screenshots from JSW PC on their site), then the
game could well have the quirky features we know and
love! :-)
I doubt that I will purchase the GBA
version - I'm not opposed to commercial remakes (I
purchased Software Projects' MM remake for the Amiga), but
certain Jester staff don't seem to care about certain
members of the videogaming community...
