Flash Manic Miner is back online for anyone interested to have a go
at it :-) .

I never thought the recordings of my high-score-setting game would
acquire documental value one day (now they don't have it anymore,
since the site is back online). Just in case somebody would like to
have a look at them, here are the links:

Caverns 031-040: http://www.divshare.com/download/4038790-31a
Caverns 041-050: http://www.divshare.com/download/4038793-686
Caverns 051-060: http://www.divshare.com/download/4039066-b94
Caverns 061-070: http://www.divshare.com/download/4039392-91d
Caverns 071-080: http://www.divshare.com/download/4040239-031
Caverns 081-090: http://www.divshare.com/download/4040242-4ac
Caverns 091-100: http://www.divshare.com/download/4040627-aed
Caverns 101-105: http://www.divshare.com/download/4040629-9b4

I don't have the recording of the first 20 caverns, because I didn't
stop the recording to divide it properly and then couldn't save the
file which had grown too large.

The files are 621 MB in total, but if you download just the first
three, you will have seen it all, since afterwards the third set of
caverns just keeps repeating.

Thanks to Drunken Master (forgive my spelling) for mentioning
FrontCam once on these pages - the program I used to create the
recording.

It is encouraging to know that other authors are working on new JSW
games as well. Herve, it's wonderful that we can expect the release
of the second part of "Willy in the Islands of Mystery" as early as
before the end of the year! Drunken Master, it's good to know you are
advancing two projects of yours! Jet Visy, it's nice to know that you
haven't forgotten JSW and that you may actually pick up your old idea
again and complete it! Andrew, I look forward to seeing "JSW64: Flash
MM" and the new version of "James Bond", and of course I curse tennis
every time I think of it, and the necessity to have a full-time job,
too :-) .

What I would still like to know is whether Sendy and Adban de Corcy
continue working on their (well-advanced) JSW projects...


3. Darth Melkor, Dark Sith Lord of Mordor - you HAVE indeed posted
here before, and you are well-known for your cruelty to the player
when scribble-designing games :-) . This search engine problem is
really annoying, isn't it?
