Subject: Good news for MM/JSW
The good news:
1. It looks like all my Sundays for the rest of 2008 will be free for
MM/JSW. :-)
2. I watched _Quantum of Solace_ today. I made notes on locations,
colour-schemes, features that will map well to MM/JSW features, stunts
that will map well to MM/JSW moves, and characters (as potential
guardians). I plan to write the corresponding JSW64MM: James Bond room
next weekend. I think it will be set mainly in Siena, Italy, and in the
Bolivian desert.
3. darnkitty.com (Flash Manic Miner) is back online after going AWOL
for the last five days, and this time, there should be no more problems.
4. I had a really cool MM/JSW game-idea recently. It's top secret for
now, but tennis permitting, I would love to work on it in the first
half of 2009. 8-)
Not so good:
5. Bond 23 has been postponed from 2010 to 2011. The consequence for
JSW64MM:JB v1.1 is that I feel less inclined to rush it for the sake of
a 2008 release, although it remains my firm aim to release it at the
end of the year (alongside JSW64:FMM).
