Subject: Thanks...
Thank you for the amzing feedback! Uh... many questions popped up,
and I'll try to answer them all in one posting.
DrUnKeN mAsTeR: Platform action was not inspired by Psycho Fox. The
block gfx was actually inspired by a level in Super Mario 4
methinks... Anyway, much of the other gfx were inspired by Master
System/Game Gear graphics. The consoles had limited colour-palettes
and forced the game developers to think twice before laying down the
pixels. (Not unlike the Spectrum...)
jet_visy: Thanks for welcoming me back... and calling me a liar. Yes,
the italianos contacted me, but since I didn't have a webcam, there
wasn't much to do about it...
pharmaecopia256: Woah!, right back at you...
gawp: Comic strip ready..? Dunno... a couple of months maybe...
Whats next? Haven't thought much about that... Maybe a revamped
version of Andrews night off? Glad to hear about the 9-months-old.
Kids suck the energy right out off you, but what you get back makes
up for it a billion times... And my family are just fine. Well, more
than fine... Great! The family haven't increased in numbers, but
it'll happen some day.
gawp: PS - will your artistic website be returning in the future
then?
Yes, it'll look completely different.
gawp: PPS - will you want your old website back?
Hell no! nononononono! When it comes to MM/JSW I think I'll stick to
48K Spectrum work...
