1: I decided to write a mini-quest type game when I re-started
editing JSW in my new surroundings. Then when I have 6 rooms of it templated Igor releases a mini-game with 6 rooms.

My mini game bares no resemblance to Igors however(and will have
more than 6 rooms), but it is quite a nice little idea of mine I'll keep it quiet for now. I've already mentioned this to Daniel in an e-mail I sent him regarding bug fixes with my old 48k titles for
the .TZX vault. But here's the clincher it stars an original JSW
character who hasn't had his own game yet (Therefore it's not
Willy, Maria, Eugene, or The Manic Mining Robot). The game has 2
nice little surprises in it 1 is for Sendy: something you dreamed
about! I've put it in my game to an extent(it's nothing amazing or original really but it's a nice touch to the game). The 2nd is a
little payback for all the JSW fans out there who dislike Willys'
lazy fat housekeeper.

The reason I'm keeping quiet for now is the game although short may be heavily modded (like I say maybe, it already has a couple of
interesting tweaks).

So should I mention this on my List of MM/JSW Games, and if so, which category (48K JSW, JSW128 or JSW64) is it?

You can do in future but revealing the title would expose the

games content prematurely. It would be JSW 64, it will be approx 30
screens. I intend to finish it before the 11th April (2 months since
I started it, and probably could have finished long before had I had
any spare time on my hands, I feel your pain Andrew).
