Oh joy! Add to that the fact that I now have to completely re-arrange my entire Network, and things aren't exactly looking up for AGameAWeek this week. What a week for THAT to happen!!! socoder.net/?blogs=21353 Also this week.. Workshop #231 asks you to make an LCD style game within the space of a week. Can you do it? Only one way to find out! socoder.net/?topic=1814 Oh, and apologies if the formatting goes a bit crazy this week.. My network's entirely messed up, and I'm writing this without my regular template file! Normal service will resume shortly. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Read Post$ -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ; £860 for a console!!
