  1. Last week a hornet got in the house. Rather than swat it, I sucked it up with the central vacuum.

    Last summer, a bee got in the house! Having been stung only twice in my life, I didn't want a third, so it was hanging out near the window and boom! Hit it with a phone book.


  2. Thanks for the long song comments, keep 'em coming.

    I have "Octavarium" and "In the Presence of Enemies" by Dream Theater.

    If you're interested, there's a whole page that lists over 700 long songs on the DPRP Long Songs List, one of my favorite websites, even though they omit some I have. I've tried to tell them, but they won't add them to the list. Oh well.


  3. I was thinking along the lines of the shark in Super Mario Land 2, which goes back and forth, patrolling a certain fixed area for each maze, unlike the octopus which can move freely around. I don't know if I can draw a shark in pixels, though. So maybe a fish or something.


  4. I occasionally drink 7up, but my favorite beverage is water. I just don't like soft drinks all that much.

  5. I'm working on an Adventure-type game too once Happy Halloween is over (and when I'm taking a break from creating new puzzles for it.), but this one is more a shoot-em-up game like Xybots for the Lynx than an RPG. I don't know if I need your permission before continuing my game, since they're both similar to Adventure. I can stop because it's in the very early stages. Is your main character going to be a block, or are you going to change it to something that's not a block?


  6. Man, I wish it was only 91 here. :ponder:

     

    We've been over 100 all week, hitting 106 a couple of days.

    My sympathies go out to the people who are triple digits and over. We usually get a few days over 100 each year in Salem, I remember a recent summer when it got up to 104. The Weather Channel upped the ante and now it says 99 on Wednesday.


  7. I just made this for fun. I think BStar is my next project to be released on cart. Which reminds me, I need to get back to working on it. :) Something, or a GoSub 2 using the multisprite kernel with enemies *and* treasure might be interesting. Of course, if GoSub 1 was 16k and took 6 months of work, I'd hate to think how massive a project the second one would be!


  8. I have this game and didn't know it had Toobin on it. Klax is cool (it also got released on the Atari 2600 in Europe only, lucky them.) I think I'll go ahead and play it. I was looking at MAT 3 and wondering whether I should get it because I like racing games. I liked Hydro Thunder for the N64, is it any good on MAT3?

    Plus various NES games I forgot to write down. So I've had a busy Q1 myself.


  10. I have all of these (except for Nintendogs I picked Labrador and friends). And I have some bad news: Baby Mario does cry in Yoshi's Island DS. And not only that, so does Baby Peach, Baby DK and Baby Wario. That, and I think there's only 5 levels and not 6 like the original. Still, it's a fun game.
