Yesterday, Rob from RetroRemakes asked if he could do a spritesheet for Spike Dislike.
After a lot of back and forth, I decided to write a how-to, so any future requests could go a little bit smoother!
Here's some info on how to make 'em, alongside a bunch of all-important rules.

The story so far...
Jay buys Mac
Main PC Dies
Jay worries not
Jay uses Mac.

OK, I've gone through all the CPC Cassette, and here's the ones that initially jumped out as being at least vaguely redoable.
|update| Old Google Spreadsheet doesn't seem to work.. |update|
Next up, I'm going to start grabbing other editions, and going through them.
Well, I say next up, I've gotta make this week's first, though!
.. I'll go do that!

You all know how to play this one!

Hello all!

What follows is a review from PlayThisThing.com
I screengrabbed it, because they're probably going to fix the "little" thing at the top, and I want to continue to take the piss out of them.
Here's me taking the piss out of them.

This week, I bought one of these...

A brand new game, EVERY DAY over Christmas!

Stringy Things is out, for iPhone and iPod.
Slightly annoying that this didn't happen earlier.. That would've let me do a great big "First AGAW of the year, Second iPod release" thing, earlier.
No matter.
It's up, now!

An ever so slightly shorter edition of this week's intended game, which almost didn't happen!! Nice and playable, although it's probably much more playable on Hard than on the other two levels!
This week sees the return of silly-name favourite Ted Bob, as he grabs an Amy Rose style hammer, and attacks oncoming crates.

Arseholes.
God damned feckin' arseholes.

A few weeks ago, my sister lost her job. She's currently in the midst of trying to get a new one, and so is hopping around site to site, grabbing Application forms, sending off CVs and all the other "Trying to get a job" types of things.

(I'm not sure if that rhymes, possibly maybe..)
Over at <a href="https://battle.onego.ru/forum/showthread.php?p=459813">[Battle]Forum</a> (|edit| I think this forum's long gone |edit|) they're having a nice chat about JNKPlat2010, and, more significantly, the insanity that is Shadow1w2's MASSIVE 100th level.
It's a fantastic level, but they just can't quite fathom it.
I had a go, today.

54 games. Last year I only managed about 30-odd, so I think that's pretty good going.
Sure, it might not have truely actually been A Game "Per" Week, but I did at least keep the ratio up.
If I hadn't taken the time out to build the framework, I probably would've actually achieved the target a little better
The stats show I was pretty much on top of things up until that point, but then things got slower and slower until my buffer zone was all dried up.

This year, the Big Torrent is available from Monova.org! (Torrent is long gone!)
If you'd like to play 53 out of 54 from Year 2, you can go grab it now.
I left out Rock My Chords, since it's 49Mb on it's own, and I reckon it's got an audience of.... me!
But otherwise, the rest are in there.

Fred is a happy Flea, and he loves to hop.
He especially loves it when all the Dandelions are casting their seeds around in the air, as he can grab on, and go for a ride.

As promised, here's a quickly bundled together edition of Cardagain DS.
I'm not sure if folk'll play it, since nobody seems to play it, so I haven't spent a lot of time on it.
It's the absolute basics that are needed.

This one didn't really turn out, so well.
It's a nice nature based bee game, with lovely floaty music, and some words.

You hit Tab to highlight the flower/bee, type it's unscrambled word into Barry's Belly, then hit return.

An early caffeine fuelled start has lead to a nice NeonPlat trailer, which actually took about two hours... But who's counting!?

I didn't keep a track of how/when I pieced this together, mostly because I kinda just jumped into it this morning, but it went ...

I'm off to watch the season finale of Stargate Universe!
Meanwhile, here's my first 45 minutes.

Well, that didn't go to plan, but it's not entirely awful, either.
In fact, it's turned out so nicely that I've even added it to the Archive.

Simply put, Awesome!!!
Hop around, grab the balls, throw them at the bad guys, and paint all the white floor tiles in the colour of your pants!

There are four difficulty modes on the titlescreen, and you can play Co-Op style with up to four players simultaneously!!! (although, you all have to be using the one system. Still haven't learned to do any Network stuff, yet!!)

This week's game didn't quite turn out as well as expected.
We'll call this week a fail, I think!
Still, you could probably play it once, if you could be bothered, and then delete it in a slight rage that you played something that wasn't all that good!

Cracking game, this week!
What started out as an unknown game, quickly became fantastically playable. A remake of the little WarioWare UFO Spike thing that I made last week, only with more spike things than is probably sane!
In the end, the game's turned out quite a lot like a Geometry Wars clone. I wasn't expecting that, but there it is!

Two fire buttons, Z for left fire, X for right fire. I wonder how long it'll take for people to realise that, without me having writ...

This is the 2nd release, unless you got the Editor Pre-release, in which case, this is actually the third!!
Oooh!
100 levels, with #100 having a nice big star on the titlescreen!
There's a couple of new tiles to play around with, but I've had no time to actually build any levels with them, due to silly bad-head days.
