Alienator recently released a new site called Jazz Comedy Central. He sent me this e-mail about it:

Here's more news on Roaster's upcoming level pack, The Long Trip Home: (I hope you can understand it better than I can ;)

[The Long Trip Home] will 12 episodes long each with 10 levels, 2 endings, and 2 pathes. Each time you beat an episode the storyline is left unknown until the next episode. By using this i can release levels earlier and people only have to download one episode if they want. Of course, You can download the whole 120 Pack and get 2 secret levels, and a secret 3rd level. A demo will be released with 6 levels for every Episode, In the full episode, after those 6 levels, The pathes branch, thus adding the 2 endings.

As a result of our resolution viewing poll, I've made a *drum roll please*

Unified Resolution Viewing Of Jazz 2 Ci--

Nevermind that. You get the point. Our Uni-Res allows 640x480, and even 1600x1200 resolution surfers to view J2C comfortably. It simply gets rid of the top and bottom frame image backgrounds, and puts a scroll-bar on the menu. It's uglier, sure; but if you prefer to view at 640x480, then this is for you. Click here to view J2C in Uni-Res.
