; Hello World


I was in two minds whether I should make this week's newsletter Apple-Centric or not.
In the end, I decided not to.
There's been enough appley stuff, yesterday.
RIP Steve.

Q: What upcoming game are you most looking forward to?

-=-=-

@hannardynamite
A cross between Rage, Skyrim and Assassin's Creed. Mainly Assassin's Creed though.

@rawrDennis
Skyrim, Silent Hill HD collection, Max Payne 3 and the Last Guardian!

@SJHillll
Was looking forward to Rage, as co-op games are great fun and believed it was full co-op. Now it isn't, and getting avg reviews

HardOCP have a good Rage at Rage, the new "amazing" game from ID Software.

I'm a bit late to the party, here, but Look!! New Thundercats series!!

Guide the worm through the ground, and eat all the humans up above.

A great looking target shooting thing.
Imagine Worms, but with added abilities to control your weaponry in midair.
Lovely!

; Team Fortress Arcade

A great looking remake, turning Team Fortress 2 into a kind of 90s arcade shooting platformer.

; The Complete'ish History of JNKPlat.

I last updated this page in 2008.
On Tuesday, AnotherWorld asked me if I had a more complete list of all Platdude's games, so between Wednesday and Thursday I've been updating the history page.
Lots of updated bits of text, mostly all linked to my archive, and screenshots from all of those random missing games.
Worryingly, I can still think of some games that aren't on there, and I've also been lazy and kinda skipped the 97-99 stuff.
But it's mostly complete!
1997 to 2011 in 16 pixels!!

; Car Demo

An oldskool top-down styled driving engine.
Looks like Super Sprint, but plays like those oldskool LCD driving games you used to get!
Would be nice to see something bigger made from this!

; PMC updates

Loads of tweaks going on at PMC again, this week.
You can see what all's been going on in the blog, and then check out the kickass little clock at the bottom!

; Stars Demo

And, just for the hell of it, here's some luvly stars, using some of that nice additive blending that the PMC crew recently added.
Woohoo!!!
