Subject: "Madam Blavskja's Carnival Macabre 48K" has been released!
I am pleased to announce the release of the 48K Edition of “Madam Blavskja’s Carnival Macabre” :) .
First of all, my warm thanks once again to Fabián Álvarez López (Adban de Corcy) for the original 128K edition of the game and for his support for the release of this version.
I would also like to extend special thanks to Ian Rushforth for his valuable cooperation and numerous contributions to the project.
You can download the game from its page on JSW Central.
You can also visit the game's *very* rudimentary home page on JSW Corner and download it from there. The same ZIP file is hosted on both websites.
The package contains:
- The official release file of "Madam Blavskja's Carnival Macabre 48K Edition" in the TAP format;
- The official release file of "Madam Blavskja's Carnival Macabre 48K Edition" in the TZX format (created by saving the TAP file as a complex tape file);
- The Readme;
- A ZXK file which makes it possible to play the game on the Sinclair ZX Spectrum Vega/Vega+;
- The Readme written by Fabián Álvarez López especially for the 48K Edition of the game;
- A ZIP with the release files of the original 128K edition of the game;
- A ZIP with bugfixed files of the original 128K edition (please see Section IX of the Readme for their description);
- A ZIP with some early screenshots of the game, from the time when Fabián was still working on it as a 48K before upgrading it to 128K.
The Readme (which counts over 90 pages when pasted to a Word document using Calibri 11 and single spacing) contains detailed credits and describes every aspect of the game, including descriptions and annotated disassemblies of various technical solutions used in it, some of them applied in a JSW game for the very first time.
I hope you will enjoy this atmospheric adventure, created by Fabián and presented here, with some enhancements and an option to play either the original game or with five extra rooms, in 48K.
Please let me know you've had a go at “Madam Blavskja’s Carnival Macabre 48K" - using this mailing list or by e-mail. Fabián's e-mail addresses can also be found at the end of the Readme - do let him know if you have enjoyed the game!
Daniel
