Replacing the belt on my Dixons cassette player, back in the mid-90s. I used to dare to attempt things like that, back in the day!

I typically find it quite hard to "aim" for a style. Whatever comes out of my music tool is whatever it may be!

When I was a kid I tried to learn miniature painting, and experimented with my HeroQuest set. Took me a while, and a whole lot of awful painting along the way, but I got fairly competent, and was quite proud of how well I managed. Post-Op, that skill has long gone, as shaky-hands makes it infinitely worse than it was. Maybe I oughta try to learn that skill again, but I'm not sure I have the patience to try to keep my hands steady enough for that. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

A chaotic mishmash of all things! Most of the sound effects in Shoebox of Games come from a copy of Monopoly (Mario : Gamer edition) that I happened to have sitting beside me when I started the project! I used to use Dr Petter's sfxr a ton, though. That was awesome. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

NeonPlat Adventures. 50 enemies each with their own capture-power up, a lovely Neonscape world, calendar level select, ooooh so many features. That's easily the biggest game I ever worked on. I gave myself a 2 month deadline, stuck to it, released it with such hype surrounding it. .. then it tanked and nobody played it. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

I've always loved Cel Shaded, but it kinda got overused when it first became a "thing", and the higher the resolution in modern games, the worse it seems to mix with the graphics. I think the best version of it was Wacky Races on the Dreamcast, but even that looked better when paused, as opposed to when it was moving in a silky smooth 3D environment. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

Greenie's Typing Tutorium / Advent 2024 I honestly thought this would've been a doddle, and managed to get the basics into the engine in next to no time, but then a few issues creeped slowly into the project. 1. American English, and me trying best to figure out how to account for both, without making the typing more difficult. 2. I found writing the actual Tutorial stuff to be incredibly boring! 3. After a month and a half of semi-working on it, but also getting sidetracked by a hundred or so other bits and pieces, it kinda got left by the wayside, due to .. you know.. that whole ADHD Coder thing. I think I've given up with it. Project abandoned. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
