Subject: List of MM/JSW Games updated / Version-numbers

 

I have just updated my List of MM/JSW Games for the first time in
three months:
http://geocities.com/andrewbroad/spectrum/willy/list.html

In that time:

* Igor Makovsky has released Lena vs Margo.

* Daniel Gromann has released Willy's Hoard
and a Special Edition of Lee Tatlock's Willy vs The Vampire Lord.

* Hervé Ast has reissued v.2 of Willy on a Transatlantic Cruise,
adding Spanish and Polish translations (by Daniel Gromann), and
editing the scrollies and some of the room-names in the English
and French translations.

* De Vandemar Croup has released MPThrilla: The Metal Miner.

* Willy Tournament 2004, by Mark Woodmass, has finally surfaced on
the Internet.

I have also updated Scope and Principles, Future 48K MM Games,
Future 48K JSW Games, Future JSW128 Games, Future JSW64 Games,
Other Released Games and Other Future Games.

"JSW on a Transatlantic Cruise" Translated into Polish ans
Spanish!!!

It's a GREAT experiment to play this game with these two new
translations.
This work was completed by Daniel Gromann!
Daniel also corrected some names of rooms of the English and
French version and modified all scrolling message of each
versions. A great work perfectly carried out!
It's really a great chance to be able to be helped by him, thank
you still.

So Don't hesitate to download the latest revisions of the English
and French version! (The number of version remains nevertheless
the number 2 because nothing in the jouablility is modified.)

In my opinion, any change to the .TAP files, or the addition of
new .TAP files, should cause the version-number to be incremented.

Maybe not to v.3, but it would have been nice to call it v.2.1 so
that I didn't have to use such a clumsy revision-descriptor as
"(v.2 reissued with Spanish and Polish translations)"
on my List of MM/JSW Games.
