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.

Keeping with the classic retro theme, here's a nice and simple little 15-screen jumping platform game! <img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/GeeBee_Hop_20101101_Logo_thumb.png">

In windows, to add a tab to the left of 3 or 4 lines, I've settled into the habit of doing either one of two things.. 1. Up, Home, Tab, Up, Home, Tab, Up, Home, Tab, Up, Home, Tab. Which goes up per line, heads to the far left, then places a tab. or 2. Select all lines, hit Tab. Which adds a tab to all the lines. On a Mac, my fingers are exercised a little more thoroughly...

Oh, hell, I gotta start this all over again!! Year 3 : October 2010 - October 2011 It's a month away, and I'm still being all lazy and relaxing, but I need to try and keep the site looking half-assed, so it doesn't disappear due to lack of activity

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. Anyhoo, this is a nice big lengthy re...

Last Sunday I had the worst migraine I've had in ages. Ack!! For the rest of last week I felt mostly drained, not much energy, and I haven't really done too much of anything. This weekend I think I just plain gave up and have spent about 48 hours asleep!

I'll post Mac and Linux editions of this tomorrow, but I just want to make sure it's working for all the PC Peeps first.. <a href="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/MICROBE2_20100705.zip">Here's a rerelease of Microbe2</a>, with ONLINE SCOREBOARDS!!! And those keyboard controls that everyone apparently wanted.. Lemmie know how it goes! Ta

Awww.. A missed week. They're quite rare, nowadays, but there we go. If Apple could get their act together, I could've said "Y2:W48 : Cardagain iPod", but.. guess that's not happening any time soon. Nearly a whole week since I submitted my game, and still no feedback at all. SUCKS.. So, what HAVE I been doing this week?

Tuesday : Game #200 : RetroRaider II, Lara's Quest Continues

Am I still doing that 90 minute thing?! *shrugs* Seems to have faded out a bit. Oh well, no matter.. Today I spent about 2 hours working on this. <a href="https://socoder.net/uploads/1/MICROBE2__(Screenshot_30_Jun_2010_021525).png"><img src="https://socoder.net/uploads/1/MICROBE2__(Screenshot_30_Jun_2010_021525)_thumb.png"></a> .. Yep, that..

So far, we've had the following.. ... Day 1. (Last Wednesday) Do What?! Wha.!.! Euww.. Visual stuff.. Eeek! Argh!! Day 2. (Thursday) Pissed about with other stuff on my Mac, in a vain attempt to ignore the fact that I had to learn stuff. Days 3-7. (Fri-Sat-Sun-Mon-Tue) Back to AGameAWeek, recompiling all the Blitz stuff, uploading those, fixing up JNKPlat and Gravity Bombs. --- It seems that, no matter how much I want to, I don't actually have all that much iPhing time. A...

August 26th 2009 That's the last time I did a Mailbag post! Blinkin' eck! Over the past 6/7 months, I've occasionally dipped into the mailbag and plucked out little snippets, but I figured it was about time I did a proper one. A few of these have already been posted, but there's a whole batch of new ideas here. Let's go!!! (There's a lot!!)

And so it begins.... A whole month of MAR10 games, featuring your favourite (or not) Jayenkai characters, all dressed up like Mario! Hurray!

Ted Bob in a Mario Costume

*Very ranty, and quite wordy!*

Today's updates. 1. A change of instruments 2. An accompaniment 3. More channel-specific so as to stop instrument overlap. 4. Properly integrated into Framework (the sample below is literally the test, no cut/splicing. just as is, from game start... including the JNKDitty)

I get to this point once every few months, and .. well.. here we are again! A few things are getting me here, this time around. Let's list the reasons, then think of some solutions..

A nice and simple game, this week, inspired by this week's Wednesday Workshop (#224) Board Game challenge. Rather than having plain Questions and Answers, I've taken all the results from Socoder's daily polls, and rounded them up into the game. Can you select the option that the most people at Socoder did?! <a href="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Guesstimates_20091027A.png"><img src="https://AGameAWeek.com/complete/Guesstimates_20091027A_thumb.png"></a> Pick the best to ...

Blockman Gets More is coming along nicely, with one slight issue to be aware of. I've got the bloomin' Swine Flu, so don't expect a miracle super game by Tuesday. Dangit.. I should have a game done by Tuesday, but it won't be Blockman Gets More, that's currently waiting until such a time that I can actually think straight, and not struggle to type! Flu sucks, especially once it's got into your head. Bah! This week's game will be probably be the poll-based board game tha...

It's that unexpected time, where I randomly choose to rummage through the bundles of silly game ideas, and pluck out the best/worst! Let's throw out the spam, and get started. ..
