Just a quick update to let you all know that Shining Online is still alive and well, it’s just a little…quiet.

We’ve now got all the online options/functions designed, and it’s now just a case of getting it all formally written up before all the hard work starts. I’m sure you can appreciate the amount of time these things require, and with both Newts and myself now attending university (my second year, his first :P), time is one thing we don’t get much of.

For those of you who are wondering about demo 4, Rest assured, it will be released. However, the full game is more important, and that is where most of the effort is going. There’s still a long, long way to go, but we will get there!

I hope to get plenty done at the weekend, but it all depends on what life throws at me…

Yep, I’ve been hard at work in the past few weeks on the Shining Online WAP site, which you can now access from your WAP-enabled mobile phone! The address is http://tagtag.com/sonline, so be sure to check it out as it’s quite cool, actually! Leave a message in the guestbook while you’re there, too!

Expect plenty more Shining Online goodies in the near future!

Update – Anything you can do… – 21/08/2002 Yup, Shining Online now has a downloadable logo for all Nokia phones! Is this a sign of things to come? We shall see…

Yup, today Shining Online demo 3 hit the big 1000 downloads! I’m not usually one to get excited about things like this, but Newts isn’t here so I’m having to be the happy one :P

Thank-you everyone, we won’t let you down! :D

No other important updates really, and there won’t be any for at least the next month, as I’m away on holiday. Hopefully something shall emerge after that time, though you’ll all have to be patient :P

Cheers!
