    "three excellent remakes" is being too kind. I would call them three attempts at one good remake 🙂

    If players enjoy them, it's all been worthwhile.

    Hi there,

    If you want to include MM40th with the other two or have it as a stand alone entry that's up to you, I'm fine either way, whatever make sense 🙂

    Thanks for holding off on making the video public. I think you saw something in one of the caverns towards the end which got you thinking. Not hard to work out but think it is a nice touch I wouldn't want given away too soon. You did take some unusual routes, and in at least two caverns I saw the desire to head in the traditional but sub-optimal direction. And have no idea what you were doing at the bottom of Cavern 4, you made that look at least twice as hard as it needed to be 😛

    Glad you like the look and layout. Was planning to release it on the 1st, but as I was playtesting it I saw another graphic or block location I could tweak. Was thinking a 40th Tribute comes around so rarely I should at least spend a few more days getting it as good as I can. Not saying it's the best mod of MM, as it isn't. Some clearly have better graphics, more original layouts, better music, and axtra machine code routines I never even thought of. But, although I'm blowing my own trumpet here, I think it's fun, bright, with good flow, and enough of a challege to keep the average player wanting just one more try.

    Oh, glad you liked the title line faces. When I moved from an Upper & Lowercase font to just an Uppercase one, that freed up 26 characters, enough for 13 faces just there. And with some cavern titles already quite long I didn't need them for those, leaving just a few more to find in the unused characters £$%^_+{}~# 🙂
