One of my hobbies is crossword puzzle-making. Inspired by crosswords in just about every single TV guide, I decided to start making my own. The result isn't as perfect as those in the TV guides, but I hope you'll have fun with this new blog topic. The answer to this crossword will appear the next time there's a new crossword (which will probably...

I called "Virtual Dieter" done and entered it in the 2008 Minigame Compo. I think it's a pretty neat game and I want it on a cart. But there's one problem: It has no label. That's where you come in. If you design a label that I like enough, you can win! Win what, you might ask? Either a copy of the game, or $25 in cold hard...
But that didn't stop me from going to Game Crazy. Have any of you had this happen? You buy a few games because you think you don't have them and you take them home only to find you do have them after all? Luckilly I only spent $3 for 3 of them. 1 doesn't work but I haven't cleaned it yet. Well, anyway, I submitted Virtual Dieter to the...
I'm making a secret game. It's so secret, there will only be one copy in existance. I might make the binary file available if the 2008 Minigame Compo ever gets under way. The name of the game is "A Game." I couldn't think of a better title for it, well, anything that would make sense. I could have called it "Fred the Psychotic...
I had about 30 bytes to spare, so I redesigned the guy from Virtual Dieter. Now he resembles Pitfall Harry (but fatter), and I now have 3 bytes left.
In other news, I'd love to watch YouTube videos and listen to podcasts, and all that other good stuff. The bad news is I still have dial-up. It's frustrating because we...

My mom was nice and took me to Game Crazy. Now, the reason I wanted to go was to look for Game Gear games, but when I saw all the new Atari 2600 games sitting there, I went over there instead. I got Shootin' Gallery, Revenge of the Beefsteak Tomatoes, Donkey Kong Jr., Gyruss, and Tapper (an R6!) all for $1 each. Pretty good deal, eh? Tapper has...
Well, I can get my Game Gear to work in a weird way without using the AC Power Adaptor. Mind you I don't know why this works, or how I made it work, but it does. If I turn it on and then touch the hole where the adaptor goes, it turns on. It works with the adaptor as well, but it needs to be in a certain position inside the hole for it to work. Weird....
I'm making a list of songs under 30 seconds long. It's not very long yet, but I'd like some contributions to make the list grow. If you know of any, send them my way and I'll add them. The list is here. It's practically the same design as a...
I got Prince's Symbol album because of the song called "7". It goes good with the song called "8" by Sunny Day Real Estate. Now all I need are songs called "1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6" and "9" and I'm all set. I saw a Lenny Kravitz album called "5",...
Happy Valentines Day!
Yesterday, I went downtown and got me two records. The first one was Van Morrison's "Common One", one I have been looking for because it has two 15-minute songs on it ('Summertime In England', and 'When Heart Is Open'). I like 'Summertime In England' better because it actually has drumming on...
