You're right, I think my memory is more musical than visual. The tune and the way it repeats itself is reminiscent of the C=64 days (the intermission screens too!).
But then the visual style is mode 13h indeed. More heart-sinking memories.. SEG A000 ... :°°°°( |

Thanks! :) I was going for 320x200x256 mode 13H 90s aesthetic, but maybe you had a better compute than me. ;)

this time more than ever you captured the feeling of those cheap but awesome games of the mid 80s afternoons.
now just add a 10 minutes loading screen otherwise I have no excuse for the milk and cookies I had while waiting.. |

happy birthday! The colors in that race photo are tremendous. I've been reading for like 7 years I think. |
| |
Thank you long time marathon-readers! :) |

The nicest sort of marathon has been reading your blog for nearly that long Tom. Happy Birthday! and best wishes as you keep going and going.. |
| |
FYI I have been reading your blog for that long (and also am that old). |
| |
This was my first time actually buying one. They're usually such a rip-off and so workmanlike, but what sold me on this one was all the death faces behind me. |
| |
Always purchase the official race photos. |

[ Connector World by Tom 7 ]
Thought it was a bug until I figured it out. Totally awesome game! |
| |
|
|
| |
Ah! I solved it now. Brilliant.
|
| |
In that case you have to restart. It's a situation I knew about but didn't have time to fix before the end! Sorry. :(
IMO the last level is worth solving, and you just gave yourself a hint. :) See also the carefully worded last hint... |
| |
Here: http://www.math.bme.hu/~ambrus/pu/connector-world-burned
As you can see from the address bar, I cheated.
|
| |
So what do I do if I clicked on a connector on the tray but can't place it anywhere on the board because there's not enough free space? How do I drop it back to the tray or move the other connectors or something?
Ok ok, I get it, it's just a Ludum Dare game, it can't be perfect.
More seriously, I'm stuck on the last level. |
| |
Ha ha, sorry, theme was "Connected Worlds". :) |
| |
Oh no, maybe the horrible pun is the "dead ends"? |
| |
You didn't link to the ludum dare homepage, and haven't told us the theme, so now I don't know what this year's horrible pun is.
|
| |
Should not be possible..?? |

What a great read... from the original story through to the comments. I understand the need for copyright and privacy, but there are just to many situations where it is a grey area. There is never a problem with creating a key cutter, a blow torch or a gun, the legality comes in how it is used. The program you created is a tool, how it is used is not a question of copyright. Technically deadbolt should have been able to sue the creators of a key copying machine because it infringed on their security should anyone use said machine for dubious intentions. Thank you for fighting this, I almost laughed as he mentioned the DCMA with an effect date of 1998 when your program came our in 1997, even at worst, you would have been covered under grandfather law with your product being constructed and distributed prior to the act going into effect.
Keep up the good work and thanks for your effort. |

Aww, thanks, Harry! I like your descriptions very much. Sometimes I think about re-recording some old favorites since with my modern understanding of recording, it's hard for me to not find awful flaws with the old stuff. But I also worry that this is a really bad idea, like the kind of thought that happens right around the time a really charming outfit wears out its welcome. Glad you like the deep cuts anyway though. :)
PS: This isn't 12-string, but we've got two lavish stereo 6-string acoustics with different tuning, which sorta does sound like that. |
