DOING THE KNOWLEDGE ...

[foz]

HI all

I`ve been Missing In Action  due to studying the KNOWLEDGE....
So as this involves learning 30,000 street names and 30,000 ladmarks(Hotels,pubs etc)
I have had to stop working on any games.......
MIA has been shelved ..........I must say sorry to JAZ  and Greg as they worked very had on the project
and i have not totally completed the project as promised.

Next 2 - 3 years studying in any spare time i have.

I intend therefore to UPLOAD a DEMO......every thing ive done to date.......Its not complete but has atleast 5 playable levels.....

I will probaly make the source files available too.....

regards

Do you want to be a taxi driver?

[foz]

Black cabbie ..... in london ....YES .

[Kweepa]

Aren't you too tolerant and enlightened to be a cabbie?
Or have you started reading the Mirror?

Sad to hear that this promizing game was shelved, but I should be quiet, now that my own title (similar to MiA at the time) called "Troopers" is shelved, too.

Anyways, I remember the awesomeness of this game from beta-testing and can't wait to see what else you changed/added.

I was wondering where you'd be at all the time...

Can't you pass MIA to jaz? I was actually just about to PM him asking about how it was going.

Jaz is very busy with payed work......plus JAZ was the main artist....and i was running the project doing a bit of this and that......

Hey, I was a bit MIA too.

The fact is that I am working on commercial mobile projects now and it just eats all my free time. I just can't afford to spend much time doing freeware anymore. Which is a pitty.

I think that it is a good idea to release M.I.A. as it is now. It's short yet funny and playable. It would be a shame to shelve it completely when so much is already done.

I was even thinking about making M.I.A. as a mobile game. It is certainly possible to do it, just yesterday I played Cannon Fodder on my Nokia and it looks and plays good. We'll see

BTW: good luck with your cab licence study and PM me if anything

Tis a shame - would you not consider passing MIA over to other AGS experts? Perhaps, giving some kind of design document - they could work on completing it. (That is, if THEY can find the time ).

Nonetheless I'll try and hire your cab when I'm next in London, out of 3,000 other drivers You'd better drive on the pavement or I'll be dissapointed!

I will upload a demo....
And as Mods said if anyone wants they could finish the game .........
If they understand the bad scripting ......Even i dont know how it works.

Also Mods....... driving on the pavement is part of the exam i believe.
