Hello to the JSW community, Here's the progress of my project number 6, "Welcome to Willy's Amusement Park." I have created and tested 46 rooms (72%). The final sequence is complete. The title screen is 70% complete. I haven't made any progress on this part. I have finished creating the maze and the haunted house. This was very difficult and took me a long time. I hope these passages will be important moments in this game. I will now create the amusement house. I have 18 rooms left to create before finishing ! 🙂 See you soon! Hervé

(screenshot taken with J2ME Loader) Found in the J2ME version. I searched him on Google, and found his Linkedin page. He was the art director of JSW and also Jet Set Racing. If you want to see what that game is, you can find it at archive.org.

Should be a bit clearer now 🙂

I demand a better quality of spambot.

Just for fun I implemented the first six rooms of tiles from the mobile edition into JSW Scrolling Edition. I've also added some foreground tiles and used some shadow tiles as well. Not sure what's going on with the music at the moment. It's all phasey. It really is a nice tile set. Do we know who made that version? JSW SW Mobile Tiles Shadow Maps.mp4

Does anyone have a full resolution screenshot map of that mobile version?

Thank you! 🙂 There are a (few) CBM 'pokes' in this topic , compiled from various sources over the years etc , but I've not compared both pages to that thread listed.

Just thought I would post this here out of interest and in case anyone had anything to offer about it. https://www.lemon64.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=86938

It was a capture from the desktop version at 5x speed, IIRC, captured wayback when with the Apple Animation codec that's no longer supported.

Thank you. Does run at a high speed. I've downloaded it for future preservation if it should go awol from Drive, can re-upload it here perhaps.

Necro'ing this thread, there's a video of the gameplay here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1No1GlfpRGCSzP3js3VWFwjXp4gR6cyHd/view?usp=sharing

Thanks for the update, Hervé! 👍It's great to know you are making good progress on this project 😊.

Hello the JSW community, Here's a progress report on the creation of my game "Welcome to Willy's Fun Park" (project number 6). I've created and tested 37 rooms (58%) The Final sequence is created The title screen is 70% complete I've finished creating the roller coaster. Now I'm going to create the maze, the haunted house, and the funhouse... the most complex rooms in the game ! See you soon! Hervé

It doesn't work (properly) when I used an ancient phone / browser to try it. It half loaded missing images etc. Maybe if you can try a different browser temporarily ? 🙂 Note : I'm not suggesting you're using an ancient browser in the first place! 🙂 EDIT... Not that it matters but I'm surprised in a way no-one noticed or complained about the completely fake 'screen header' , I only added that to make it "look normal" , yes I know it loads to 16384 , I was going to throw a spanner in the works and have a fake 'array' header instead but its pointless. 🙂

I've just been able to access zxart.ee without any problems.

Does anyone else have trouble to load zxart.ee? I have tried to access that site since Spider posted that link. This is not the first time I have problems with that site, though. I think I haven´t been able to get there for a long time, the last successful load may have been at least an year ago. Every time other sites have loaded up instantly.

It sounds terrific! Thank you for the update, Hervé, and I am looking forward SO MUCH to visiting Willy's Fun Park when it's ready! 😊

Here's a progress report on the creation of my game "Welcome to Willy's Fun Park" (project number 6). I've created and tested 26 rooms (41%) The Final sequence is created The title screen is 50% complete. The image of this title screen will be broadcast as soon as it is finished. I've started creating the roller coaster. I've five more massive rides to complete. They each have several rooms (between four and six). Sixteen others are complete (containing one to two rooms). It will take me a long time to finish this game. But I'm moving in the direction I want to create a totally different game with lots of new characters. I hope you like it See you soon! Hervé

Hello Daniel, Take the time you need to finalize your projects. It's great news to learn that a new game featuring your music will be released soon. I'm eager to discover and play it. Regarding my game, there's no rush for its release. See you soon Hervé

As I understand it there's two 'new' MM loading pictures One by Mick Farrow and one by Andy Green (plus possibly more) Have a look here: https://zxart.ee/eng/graphics/database/titleWord:manic miner/sortParameter:date/sortOrder:desc/resultsType:zxitem/ At the authors EDIT... 'New' as in Spectrum, the Sam Coupe one is very good but wouldn't look good squashed down to fit a Speccy. EDIT2... Screen tape file (with effect) test Mick Farrow - Manic Miner (2014).tap

Thank you, Daniel, I haven´t watched these before. 🙂 I expected these to be songs but they were poetry. Thank you whoever you are who did these, they were interesting and well made. 🙂

Perhaps you could contact both of them?

Thanks for starting this topic, Willy! Two more music links:

I am a little confused. You say the author of this screen is Mick Farrow. However, the main graphic is the same as the one Byron Needham used for the loading screen of "Manic Miner: The Lost Levels" and Byron mentions in the Readme Credits that "The loading Screen was created in Multipaint by Tero Heikkinen". So who was really the author of this graphic?

There´s just one room missing now, I think. 🙂
