> Igor: Hello mate, how's things? - I've downloaded your new JSWgames,
can't wait to try them! Are you still working on your JSW: Half Life
game? Drop me an e-mail sometime, if you're not too busy.
- hello Carl, glad to know you`re Ok. Haven`t seen you (better
to say, your messages) for ages. I`m fine, and, actually, everything
is very well with me. We`d discuss this topic in personal e-mails, I
suppose. If we speak about JSW creating I plan to release four
games, actually, but I don`t know where to find time to do it. I`ve a
bit changed the idea of "JSW: Half-Life" now I plan to create a
game "JSW: Manic Miner 64" instead of "HL" which will be a JSW64
game in all its beautifullnes telling us a story with Miner Willy
(instead of Gordon) but the main plot will be the same Willy will
go to work, get on his main workplace, deep in the mountain, and
suddenly something would go wrong. (The main intro to the HL). So,
sometimes, it will see the light.
The other games are:
1. JSW 6: Back in the USSR
2. FROSYA: the opposing force
3. MANIC MINER: MAK
Everyone (again): Thanks for all the work you put into JSW/MM remakes
and the interesting posts. This groups is one of the few reasons I
still keep my PC (I *much* prefer consoles, especially now I can
emulate the Speccy on the XBox), and I'm looking forward to playing
all of the new JSW/MM games I'm downloading (Jet Cat Frosya first,
though, as JSW: Frosya is one of my favourite remakes, although ZX
Heroes is better).
- Now Jet Cat Frosya is fully playable with NO bugs in it.
Actually now you can finish it and not to loose a single life. But I
suppose that nobody now play JSW games without saving snapsots every
5 minutes. :-) Plus you can check out the intro screen of the game.
I`m wating for your e-mail, because I`ve lost yours. :-( So write me
as soon as you can. I`ll be glad to catch it.
BTW: - Wanted to ask you have you tried Half-Life 2? If no you`ll
have to play it after playing it I understand that this game is the
best of all the games I ever played (ofcourse, I haven`t compared it
with JSW because this game is better even than Half-Life 2).
Looks like, my e-mail will be displayed in this post.
Igor
