I decided to change my avatar. With me programming a game about pineapples, it seemed silly to have an avatar of a watermelon up there. But I like silly things, so it wasn't all bad. I can't think of too many things left to do with this game, I think I'm nearing its end, which seems odd since I still have 9,997 bytes of data left, and the DMA holes to work with. So let's hear some suggestions. The latest binary will from now on always be on the pineapple website. I finally figured out how to change my signature, so I did. For now, the pineapple website link is in my signature. The 2-player game option was a suggestion, and it worked out well.

My eye hurt a lot yesterday, so I had to go to sleep early, at 2 p.m. I woke up at 4 a.m. because my throat was extra dry. So I woke up and my eye quit hurting, so I ate breakfast. I'm expecting a phone call which could come in the next 2 weeks (they didn't want to tell me any time more specific than that!) so the door to my room is open and I'm not listening to any music so I can hear the phone when (if?) it rings.

Which leads to a question: Do any of you still have land lines? I do. I have a phone. It's plugged into the wall in the den. My room is down the hall a short ways from the den so I can hear it. Hopefully even when the dryer is on because it is now. I also have a Samsung Galaxy 3. I last used it a month ago. It doesn't hold a charge very well though, so I probably need to charge it now. I don't know its phone number so when it rings it's probably either a wrong number or spam call because I didn't give the number to anybody because I don't know it. And I don't really have many people to tell it to anyway.

So anyway, here is a new picture of the game.

I wonder why .bmp files are so popular with emulation screenshot pictures. Why save it in .bmp format? I ask because this picture is like 200 kb in .bmp yet only 5 kb in .png format.
