Although Skint Willy v0.5 contained no actual bugs I did make Nomen
Luni impossible to cross which didn't make the game impossible to
finish but with this room in that state it might as well have not
been there. after all my intention was to keep a lot of the
original mansion intact.
Well, the original "Nomen Luni" is impossible to cross from right to
down, after all! ;-)
I must have altered the blue vampire face guardian by accident
because it's vertical descent was drastically shortened I couldn't
make a new guardian to replace this so I had to improvise.
I replaced it with a vertical version of the bollocks sprite from
the bathroom.
Bollocks? ;-) I always thought it was a bone-shaped sponge, or
possibly two globes.
I must apologise again for this especially to Andrew Broad who has
probably had to update his site about 5 times because of this awful
game
Three times actually - in fact four times because of the list-wiping
incident.
Carl Murray very kindly sent me a 15th May version of my List of
MM/JSW Games, so it was easy to read through the relevant messages to
bring it back up to date. Today's the day I'm planning to burn the
contents of my accounts onto CD for the first time since October 2001! :-)
Also Andrew in regards to your reply to my last post I was
interested when you said you use a +2 to write your conversions,
do you know anywhere in the UK I can aquire a powerpack for a +3...
Also if you do know where I can get a powerpack do you know where I
can get Paul Rhodes' JSWED on cassette or disk. This would be most
helpful, interesting and would make my day :) well maybe.
I wouldn't be able to find these items(!) myself, because shops just
don't sell Spectrum stuff these days. :-( But the term "car-boot sale"
springs to mind; see
http://www.srcf.ucam.org/~pak21/cssfaq/faqs.html#Q13 or ask in
comp.sys.sinclair.
