Wow, Vern - I was looking around this afternoon to see what other free games/demos were out there (a few days until my payday...), and decided to see if there were any new custom mansions here.
Then I found the latest post, this topic. :'(
Sorry (on the one hand) to hear that your Actionsoft dream hasn't worked out as planned/hoped - I throughly enjoyed MM (1, 2, HD) and about all of the custom mansions. (Still need to work on Luris...)
On the other hand, I rejoice at your getting a decent paying job where your skills will be more suitably rewarded, and with possibility of better increases down the road. May you be blessed with good and frequent raises there, Vern!
Hmm, maybe MM (in all its various editions) will turn into a 'cult classic' game of sorts - after all, I still enjoy text adventures (Zork, Infocom, others)...
In the meantime, I will hope and wait for the iOS version (of course, I may wind up needing a newer iPod Touch than my 2nd gen. to run it, but that's okay).
I have thoroughly enjoyed Jack and all his adventures in the mansions (think my PowerBook 2000 is on its 3rd keyboard - kinda wore a bit on the arrow keys(!)
Thank you, Vern (and all the mansion builders and beta testers) for my favorite side-scroller game of all time! (Mario has nothing on Jack, IMHO!)
