Subject: Avaible soon: «Ultimate Manic Miner»
Hi. How're you?
It's been a long time since my last post here. I'll keep short and
will continue with the plot of the message. In summer I had a lot of
free time, having two months of relaxation. I took my laptop with me
and began creating my new game that will be finished soon.
I've called it "Ultimate Manic Miner" - you could probably remember
its alpha version, where I introduced a feature with harmless
sprites. (not actually totally harmless - if using any quirky
features with them). It uses JSW 64 engine. Every of 64 rooms
presents you some interesting effect of the JSW engine (both old and
JSW64) or a quirky feature, not letting you feel boring. Tons of
triggers, stoppers and MANY MORE! (want to let you know - not
Impressed by all the JSW games I've ever seen, I've created around 40
rooms already. Every room has new sprites (in "[" version - it allows
such feature). In UMM you will meet all your lovely heroes - Willy
himself, Esmeralda - whom he will rescue and she would accompany him,
Andre - who will help Willy in all quirky situations, Maria, Pinguin
security squad, armed to teeth, and many many more...
In fact, the game is a REMAKE of Manic Miner. It tells us a story of
the first Manic Miner - like Manic Miner was never released and
Willy's actions in it - didn't took place. You have to visit every
Manic Miner room and to look at it anew, in a new engine in my
interpritation.
P.S. This game isrestricted for playing for everybody who are less
then 18. Animated violence, tons of dead corpses and atmosphere of
the horror.
I warned you - it isn't harmless for your mental health to play this
game. Being a JSW game wasn't so dangerous ever!!!
I'm posting a few screenshots - so - have a look at them in my folder
here!!
Waiting for your comments.
---------------------
Please, if you can and have a bit free time: tell me in a few words
about any news happened here till this date - I've got lost in all
the messages!! Thanks in advance! Pity, Andrew's site is no longer up
to date. Is there any new games after Willy in Paris?
---------------------
Sincerely Yours,
IGOR
