when I've finished - probably in a couple of days from now.
I've also resumed work on _Manic Miner: Allana Truman_ after taking
a long break for the sake of Party Willy. I wrote one new room this
weekend, bringing the total to 9/20.
I plan to release MM:AT in twenty weekly instalments (July-
November), and have worked out a detailed day-by-day schedule which
should leave it nearly finished by the end of May - before my six
weeks of major tennis-distractions kick in! ;-)
After MM:AT, I plan to concentrate on Afrikaan (JSW sequel to We
Pretty and Goodnite Luddite) to ensure that it will be released at
the end of 2005. I'm also planning to write and release MM:Outside
(based on David Bowie's album 1.OUTSIDE) in 2005.
Toy (the game which will include revamped versions of the rooms from
my abandoned 1992 game Jet Set Dizzy, which is in Files > Broadsoft)
will therefore not be released before 2006.
