Over two months have passed without any messages being posted in the Group. I hope it's not because people are busy with other things or
they've lost interest, but because they are so busy working on
their MM/JSW projects they have no time to post! :-)
Has it really been 2 months since anybody posted here? Jeez that's a
while that is!
I do not want to give any time predictions as to both releases. I
will do my best to gamma-release the game before the end of 2009,
which would make the beta release necessary by the end of September
of that year. It might happen sooner, the project is very advanced
already, but there's also a huge amount of things still to do, and
they cannot be rushed, quality is what counts. As usual I'll look forward to it :) Anyway, that's my current involvement. It would be very interesting
and, in fact, uplifting for me to know that other people are working on their projects, too. Herve? Drunken Master? Sendy? Adban de
Corcy? Anyone else, any surprises? And Dr. Broad, are you back from
your tennis distractions yet, Sir? :-)Let's hear some good news from all of you guys!
Cheers,
Daniel
Well you'll be pleased to know my JSW related activity hasn't been
idle.
Since releasing "The Man who Sold the World", I did start work on the
second part of the dark quadrology. "The Overfiend" is 13 screens in
now, but is briefly on hold while I work on my JSW side project.
Obviously since there's been no posts here for 2 months I haven't
mentioned it here yet (I'm sure I did send an announcement, maybe I
didn't hit send?).
It's called "Miles' Mad Mission", and stars none other than that
cheeky chappy Mile from World of Spectrum (big purple head and
everything haha!). It's currently about 20 screens in, but reality
has caught up with me for now so I haven't touched it for about a
week. It's basically going to be a WoS JSW, with many parodies and
things like that about World of Spectrum (and several of the people
who frequent it).
Well there we have it :)
Nice to hear from you again Daniel, lets hope we're not the only 2
out there still working on any projects haha!
Cheers!
DrUnKeN mAsTeR!!!
