So do I, I intend to finish my Spectrum games some day, but if I don't, life goes on I suppose (actually, it won't, because the universe's fate is intimitely tied with that of my JSW projects, no really, it's true!)

> I've spotted on a few dodgy ROM sites a Mario World Hack called Sendy's World, is this yours? If so it's on a load of sites that have SNES ROMs.

Yes, that's an really early version of my hack, which I should add is very crude compared to the build I have on this here PC. The things you can do with SMW boggle the mind now, and still I haven't learnt a line of code. :)

> 7 Days in the Sun is Still in hiatus after 6 years (yowser that long!), but I recently came up with a definitive idea for Day 4, as for the rest of the days they are still quite undetermined, and I intend to translate the club release of Day 1 into JSW 64 instead of 48k sometime in the future.

Yeah looking back on my JSW stuff makes me feel old. Time doesn't arf fly.

> The Dark Quadrology is on hold with the second part "The Overfiend" not being touched for over a year, and the final part "You Robot!" Not being touched in almost 3.

I remember a few-room-demo of You Robot! I hope you finish it some day.

> My current JSW project is a world of Spectrum based game called "Miles Mad Mission", it's almost finished and I'm gunning for a Christmas release making it almost 2 years late haha!

Good! It would be nice to see a new JSW game.

> After I finish Miles Mad Mission I'm gonna have a break from JSW editing for a while to work on a few other Speccy related things I've been putting off for years now, and I think it's finally time to get started on them. I will still work on some JSW from time to time, but I won't be announcing anything or posting any updates for anything definite basically so I don't have to work with any deadlines I give myself cos' after this much time I've realised I'm hopeless at sticking to them.

My projects are lucky if they get finished, let alone *on time*, lol
