Subject: Re: Martyn Brown of "Henry's Hoard" fame - the present
I have just come across a June 2014 interview with Martyn, at http://www.retrogamer.net/profiles/developer/martyn-brown-2/.
Here's what he says regarding HH:
"While at college, I worked with a pal on a game called Henry’s Hoard, which was based on Jet Set Willy. I did all the graphics, level design and some of the code, including the music player. We eventually managed to sell it to the owner of a local game store – the same one who, a few years later, I started both 17Bit and later Team17 with".
There are photos of Martyn and screenshots of some of his games, with the figure of Jet Set Willy featured in a "Worms" screenshot.
