$This time we have an interview
$with Jojoisjo.To verify,
$you can mail him:
$jojoisjo@yahoo.com
$This is Theta14 talking.
This is Jojoisjo talking.
$1.) How and when did you get
$into ZZT?
Arrr. The over used, abused question,
A flying monkey sent me it, NEXT!
Nah, actually I had a sharware disc
with super zzt on it, won that, went
on the net to look for more found
it, about a year later I found the
community.
$2.) What games/utils have you
$released in ZZT/MZX?
Lesse, well, my first game
ever made was cheese,
that one bites but I still stand by it!
Then came my
real break, River City.
That was the first game
that ever got any good feed
back, especially the
music. Then came Possessed, a dungeon game
with a plot different from any other
and some
neat secrets.
My newest game out is Gems and Lines,
it is a puzzle game that looks
(and I stress looks) like
tetris, or columns but is
actually alot different. I got
alot of good feedback for that game,
and there will
be more levels for it released ASAP.
$3.) What are your favorite ZZT/MZX games?
No I'm not going to say Rhygar
as everyone does, the
story line was good but it's not my
favorite. My favorite
would have to be the Dizzy Series
and Burger Joint.
Cause, they are good and stuff.
$4.) What is your favorite
$type of ZZT/MZX game?
Any kind. Just as I am making
games of many different
Genres, I play em all. Game
quality depends on how
fun it is, not what type it is.
$5.) Do you have any tips
$for beginning programmers?
Don't expect to be Zenith, Draco,
Herc etc your first game, it
takes alot of practice to be good
at zzt, don't be discouraged
by low ratings because I guarentee
if you keep up with
your games, those scores will rise,
they did for me.
$6.) How did you get your ZZT nickname?
Whoah Moe is Fro.
$7.) What do you think is
$most important in a ZZT/MZX game?
I don't know, there are many, pick
a topic,
Music, #play, freedom all
important. Graphics, Teen Priest,
most of IF games. Programming,
Burger Joint , ZZtris, which
showed us that many things are possible
in zzt if we try. I could go on.
$8.) Do you have any future projects
$in ZZT/ $MZX?
River City 2 will be coming out
soon, that will be
my masterpiece
(though Gems and Pipes is my
programming masterpiece at
this point), also a project known as
Explore with some other
Lame Game members. Also,
continuing with my making of
games of all genres, A racing
game called Muscle Cars
featuing some of my favorite rides.
$9.) Any comments?
Like I said to the new players,
don't expect to be
the best out of nowhere,
Rome wasn't built in
a day.
