Subject: Willy again and again!
Hello Everybody,
I'm still here and I'm happy to see you again here too!
As you, I would like to continue to create JSW games,
but it's very difficult to find time for that...
How strange to see that we all live the same story.
I watch every week this "JSW group" site, and I hope always
that full of new and old authors will create new JSW games.
2009 is an incredible year for my family and me,
I can not tell everything but I have accomplished some of my old dreams.
I changed job, it's more interresting now but It takes me much time.
I was fortunate to visit Egypt a few weeks with my wife.
all the wonders that I saw inspired me to create my futur game
"Willy in the Great Pyramid"...
My old passions become very important,I have a new electric guitar
red and white and a new telescope allows me to search for asteroids.
to complete, I learn Chinese and Egyptian Arabic language...
My JSW games projects:
Futur game "JSW in the Islands of Mystery: Part II: The Temple"
was rather good progress last year, but I was not happy
with the result,it was not very funny or interesting or beautiful,
so I preferred to recreate it completely!
Now I have a little more time (but not too much...)
I'm going to continue. (I'm very happy to do that)
But I'd rather not give a date for his release!
For Daniel:
I'm glad to hear from you, I hope you goes well. You are
an influential person, a motor in this group of passionate
and your future projects will be a chance for all! the next release
of "The 2009 Megamix" it's very very good new!

>(jet_visy was doing a MM game called Willy Wonka - based on _Charlie

>Glass Elevator_ - which is now "scrapped". Richard Hallas's _Jet-Set
>Willy in Space_ also contains some tributes to _Charlie and the >Great Glass Elevator_.)
Obviously! there are too many similarities, Willy with his hat
on his head and every scene in the movie are like rooms of JSW games.
It's a good idea to create a game with this theme.
I look forward to your new games
See You soon
Hervé
