Any news on SAM Revival 24.
... out soon... 7th October 2010 ?
I think Colin's probably been bogged down with that dreaded virus many of
us suffer with... WORK!! lol! ;-) I'm sure we'll see it soon enough.
Well, that's a big part of it, work! SAM stuff doesn't pay the bills ...
unless someone wants to offer me a full time wage to work on SAM stuff ;)
But I'm also sure people would realise that at times other stuff in the
'real world' has to take priority over what is just a hobby. The easiest
statement to make is SAM Revival is out when it's out, and as such all
listings for 24 both on my website and ebay (primarily there just to try and
raise interest and help new people find the magazine) are preorders and any
anticipated dates will slip if I have other things to contend with. Unlike
many years ago I don't have vast amounts of time to dedicate to the SAM at
the moment, but it's certainly not been abandoned.
I've just a couple pages to finish writing for 24 and it'll be out. Coming
up in the issue...
* The Witching Hour by John Vincent on the coverdisk, with some stunning
artwork for the magazine cover by John.
* News pages
* What Happened to... Sandman's Shadow
* Developer Diary - with Simon Owen and Rob Evans
And a lot of input from readers with:
* Letters pages (7 pages!)
* Comments section (5 pages!)
He's also got a few other things up his sleeve by the sounds of it, so
we'll probably go from zero to ninety with cool SAM stuff once things get
moving again. :-)
Indeed... a few things up my sleeves... (and not just my arms!)
I'm keeping the game generally under wraps for the moment, just for the
fun 'anticipation' factor lol! And so that it can be mentioned/revealed
first in SAM Revival (It'll be issue 25, as I know that despite the
delays, Colin has a lot of 24 pretty much wrapped up, I think).
Thanks Warren, nice to build on that anticipation factor ;)
And about 60% of issue 25 wrapped up too.... so far parts include:
* SAM modifications (couple articles from people modding their SAMs)
* Developer Diary (couple entries from programmers)
* Letters pages
* Comments Section
Colin
