=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Socoder Newsletter -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- "Flying into your inbox" #043 - 19th February 2010 https://groups.google.com/group/socoder-newsletter Tell all your friends! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ; Hello all I can't think of anything to write here, it's far too early in the morning. I'm not usually awake yet! I should probably make a random generator for these bits, and save myself twenty minutes of thinking each week! Currently Listening To... BBC News banging on and on about Eastenders. *sigh* That's not news.. In the Workshop Little Things socoder.net/index.php?topic=1892 In the Shoutbox.. Compo expansions, and pancakes, pancakes, pancakes! In the Mudchat Changing Colors SQL Errors Missing Code Blood Blisters Afr0 Games on Facebook Keyboard Cleaning C++ vs Webbased 2D vs 3D Amiga to PC and 19p Join in, it's occasionally fun! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Read Post$ -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ; E-Readers What's good, what's bad, and is it all worth it? socoder.net/?topic=1893 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Read Link$ as Post$ -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ; A link to news All about how people are freaking out about maps showing where they are, after they've accepted the fact that the maps would show where they are, and agreed to allow the maps to show where they are. Derp!! socoder.net/?topic=1895 ; More news A news story without a link, without any attribution to the original author, and with a screenshot of text, rather than actually copy/pasting the text... *sigh* socoder.net/?topic=1890 ; A link to a tutorial. Neat tutorial, mind, as Teasy teaches us how to make a shooty game! socoder.net/?topic=1894 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Repeat : Until GameOver -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- A whole bunch of new games, every single week!! >> -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- >> Socoder Games >> -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ; The Bloobles • 100 Levels • 22 Achievements • 10 Actions • 4 Worlds to Explore • 4 Mini-Games to Unlock • 2 Game Modes • Hours of fun! socoder.net/?showcase=22128 ; Box's Adventure (Jayenkai) A quickly made game that appears to have grown in size exponentially, leading to games that take about an hour to complete. Quite odd that I would make a game like this, seeing as how I pretty much hate them! socoder.net/?showcase=22153 ; To The Moon! (Blanko1324) Take a rocket all the way to the moon, in Blanko's latest adventure. Unfortunately, with all the numerous entries into this year's GammaIV compo, Blanko didn't quite make the shortlist. Dangit.. socoder.net/?showcase=22178 If it helps, this guy didn't make the list, either. bit.ly/a6O2NH >> -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- >> Moshboy's "Missed" Games >> -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- SlumLord27/Moshboy completed his Underrated Indie Games list, so is now doing "Games You Might Have Missed". Gotta Play 'em All! ; #1 - Flyout Hey, we know him!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwwqKwlGpNg ; #2 - Meritous Dungeon Shooter! www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALvy6PacdAo ; #3 - Umbrella Get the Umbrella down the screen! www.youtube.com/watch?v=xeYGYVwn8-M ; #4 - Eyeball 3 Splitscreen shooter puzzler!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxwjelyJSvw >> -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- >> Pixel Prospector's Games >> -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- If Authentic Kaizen's new site isn't amazing, I'll be disappointed! https://www.pixelprospector.com/indev/ ; Cubosphere A KulaWorld clone.. (Ball on 3D cubic maze) Neat! bit.ly/PPGames_Cubosphere ; Attack of the Paper Zombies RTS with ZOMBEEES!! bit.ly/PPGames_AttackPaper ; Invert Familiar much? bit.ly/PPGames_JoeTheft ; Invert's sequel Much more of an improvement. bit.ly/PPGames_JoeBetter -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Goto Links -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ; A Fitting End (Sticky) How to kill a vampire. socoder.net/?link=22121 ; Better or Worse (Afr0) Cashing in on other people's misfortune. socoder.net/?link=22126 ; gedit (HoboBen) Another text editor! socoder.net/?link=22149 ; Sit inside, and watch videos all day (Tikihead) and watch videos all day, and play games, and make Sims, and watch videos. socoder.net/?link=22150 ; Opera on iPhone (HoboBen) The first non-Safari browser headed to iPhone. But will it get there?? socoder.net/?link=22151 ; 5Gb of Cloud (JL235) Fill the internet with your garbage! socoder.net/?link=22157 ; Pick a card, but try not to mess up the order! (HoboBen) Placing cards into a specific sequence apparently lets you hide secret messages!! socoder.net/?link=22159 ; Shop-a-check (HoboBen) I'm still not convinced this'd work, but there's a tool that lets you see easily where tweaked parts of an image exist. socoder.net/?link=22173 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Many Much Bloggings -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ; Kettle Power! (Jayenkai) How much power do your household objects use? I've not had time to fiddle around with my latest gadget, yet, but I will do! socoder.net/?blogs=22122 ; Core Animation fiddling (Cower) Noel's playing around with some neat looking Mac UI stuff. socoder.net/?blogs=22127 ; Ubuntu (Spinal) Not everybody loves it. socoder.net/?blogs=22166 ; Pseudo Randomly Generated Music (Jayenkai) I made a maker for making music! socoder.net/?blogs=22169 ; Afr0 Gets (Afr0) Afr0 inexplicably decides to list his collection of movies and games, but doesn't put it into any particular order. Boooo!!! If I did that, I'd have to just take photos. Can't be arsed typing "Stargate" 50-odd times. socoder.net/?blogs=22175 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Tutorial -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ; Assembly Starter! (cthug) cthug has decided to post a nice lengthy starting point, for learning Assembly! Something I've never quite been bothered to do. If I had any time at all, right now, I'd probably be giving it a whirl! socoder.net/?article=22174 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Compos! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ; DBF's "Liquid" Compo Make a nice Liquid based demo type thing. bit.ly/DBF_4642 ; PlaySushi's "Adventure" Compo Make an adventure game, but you have to use Flash and you have to be in the US. That would've been a good reason for me to finally do a new JNKPlat game in Flash, but it's US only, so they can sod off. www.playsushi.com/Contest.ps -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Rant -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Every time you see a bit.ly link in the newsletters, it's because the target site has a url that's insanely long, and would completely break up the width of the newsletter. Why do sites, nowadays, insist on using up as much space as possible for their urls? Take the DBF link for example. Let's break it down.. https:// - Is a Webpage (important bit) www. - Is still a Webpage dbfinteractive.com/ - At this domain (important bit) forum/ - Is the Forum index.php/ - Is definitely the Forum topic, - Is definitely still the Forum (important bit) 4642.0 - Is this part of forum (important bit) .html - Is definitely still a Webpage Seriously?! https://socoder.net/?topic=1886 https:// - Webpage socoder.net/ - Domain ?topic= - Forum 1886 - This bit.. SO much neater! Make 'em short, people!! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Random Youtubeyness -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Got Wood? www.youtube.com/watch?v=CsVNowNGF1A Your Schwartz is as big as mine.. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUZgrL85OKs Hitler on Hitler www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqqxRPZdfvs webpage, webpage, domain, video, video, this one : *sigh* ------------------- Load, Next List |
