o Talking to people personally is a great way of verifying rumours. Here's the latest word on Bill Heineman's activities. Out Of This World will be released in a few weeks time by Interplay. Ultima I for the GS has been written but needs approval from Origin Systems before being released. Bards Tale Construction Set is in the works and will hopefully be released before Christmas. Bill did indeed get first glance at the FTA code that was presented to Joe Kohn, however Bill is not finishing their games.
o Joe Kohn has organised a programming contest based on the FTA game Bouncin'Ferno. Programmers are called upon to be inspired by the FTA spirit and come up with an exceptional game. Non-programmers can join in the fun by creating the most amazing Bouncin'Ferno levels by using the built in level editor. To get the full details of the competition and a copy of Bouncin'Ferno, including the source code, send US$7 to Joe Kohn, 166 Alpine Street, San Rafael, CA 94901, USA.
o The hottest news from KansasFest for speed freaks is that Western Design Centre are now selling 14Mhz 65816 chips. These new chips are actually made by Sanyo. Zip Technology are providing an upgrade path for the Zip GS. Transwarp GS owners need the chip and a new crystal oscillator. The processors cost US$95. Contact Richard Bennett for more information.
