The Past, Present and Future of SJ2 29.3.1999

Past:

Just coming off this crazy flu I had for four days, and that's why registrations and hiscore-updates have been a little late. Late winter is a high-season for SJ2 and I've been real busy answering your mail and sending out registrations. Still remember to tell your WHOLE NAME when sending your WHOLE and un-edited SENDME.TXT. Also, if you have question, it would be a good idea to check out the SJ2.FAQ or the MANUAL.TXT files before asking me. Thank you.

Present:

I finally got some programming help for the next version. The man-with-a-hand programmer-wiz is my cousin, Lasse Makkonen, and overall scenes for the next version look quite promising. If only I could find the time to finalize all the code he's created.

Future:

It's looking good for a change. The main cause for the huge delay of SJ3 is my lack of time and effort and also the fact that the scrolling during the jumping is going to change from SJ2. Also I'll try to make the system more flexible so that a hill-editor would be possible in SJ3. But SJ3 is still very much under construction and it won't be released in a while. I'll let you know when I know more myself.

Thanks a lot, feel absolutely free to mail me with whatever comments or suggestions you may have.
