Subject: Very soon: Jet Set Willy 3D and JSW: Spectrum world
I`m not sure that everybody of you wait for this project, because
many of JSW-fans believe that Willy doesn`t need to be 3D. The same
opinion we can see on the discussion board on GAWP`s site. Somebody
wrote there a few years ago about the same idea to make a new 3D
shooter...
But making 3D worlds sounds nice and creating 3D rooms is my
hobby too, so I like it very much. I have a very powerful and
expensive editor, especially for such engine as I plan to do JSW3D.
It is called DeepSEA. Other DOOM-related clubs (Remember: JSW3D will
use DooM engine), wait for such project very much! They remember
Willy too and they want to see how he would fell himself in 3D world.
Well... good idea, isn`t it?
Making this game is harder then 2D rooms of JSW, so it takes me a
lot of time. But soon there will be a first playable version of my 3D
game. Then, I suppose, everybody will have their own opinion.
Also, soon there will be my new JSW game, called: "JSW: Willy
goes to Spectrum world". It will be a 128K game. Much easier than my
last game, and will shock you with its graphics and design. Believe
me. You`ve never seen such rooms!! There are 63 rooms there (well I
don`t know exactly) and now there are only 35\63 rooms made but every
room will contain ITS own sprites that you won`t meet anywhere else.
Because there are no the same sprites in different ZX games, right?
I can only ask you to give me ideas, what games should I to
include to my game. I think I missed a lot of wonderful games..!
I have less and less time to spend near computer, that`s why I`m
afraid, that I will have it less in the future. Maybe this ZX project
will be my last and I won`t ever finish FROSYA TRILOGY. But maybe
not. As Andrew said in Adban`s sad farewell, "Never say: never". I
want to make 3D very much. Maybe some of you will help me with
levels. I`m tired to make them in a very large amount!
I know that it isn`t very effective to ask to write me what you
think but anyway let`s try. So write me anything - I really need your
suggestions.
Sincerely yours,
ATREIDES
