Mr. Jones will be a role-playing game which intends to recreate the spirit and feel of Sierra’s classic "Jones In The Fast Lane", with some possible new features, such as a multiplayer mode and a cartoon-like style. The game is being programmed in C++, using SDL, a cross-platform multimedia library. For those who knew the project previously, there’s been a few changes:
- I got tired of waiting for Subversion support from sourceforge.net, so I moved the project over to gna.org
- I integrated Mr. Jones webpage into the rest of my site, so I can also manage it with Drupal
- I closed the forums for now, because there is not enough people to talk to or things to talk about, yet - I will reopen the forums when the time is right
Right now this is a temporary page with nothing more than a few links in it but in the future it will have more information about the game. Links related to this project:
