Well I still may make WGDTB! You know how much I like making sewer
levels... It would need some kind of plot though, like maybe Willy
has lost something important down the toilet and it became scattered
throughout the underworld and he must retrieve all the pieces before
it's too (toi)late.

Thanks. I did a beta release of JSW: Role Reversal which is in the
files section if you haven't played it. Same with Manic Person.

designs!

Yeah in a way I do but at least JSW128 has varispeed HG's and a few
other goodies. I suspect there may be a way of converting from 128
mode to 64 mode in the future but if there isn't I'll live.

JSW64 and Erix1-mode (for 48k games) are my preferred mediums from
now on. I can't go back to that 4 blocktypes thing now, I've been
spoilt. If I do another MM game even that will be done in JSW64 too ;)

That's exactly what I'm doing with Death TV ;)
