The long story short:

- Matthew Smith made two of the most legendary ZX Spectrum games in
eighties, Manic Miner and Jet Set Willy
- After them he got a burn-out, got involved in heavy drugs, moved away from
Britain (probably to Netherlands) and vanished from the public
- He changed his name to "Matthew From-The-Earth" and contacted a guy who
was making a pc-conversion of Manic Miner. He said that making a pc-version
was ok, because it was probably too late to get angry about the copyright
violations...
