Hello World

          Took about an hour and a half writing this week's
          newsletter. I think that's a record, but
          unfortunately we're missing Moshboy's vids, this
          week.
          aww

          No matter, carry on regardless..

          This bit, I wrote last, because I had no idea what
          to write.
          And I still don't.

          ..
          tum-tee-tum..

     In the Shoutbox..
          IT GOT BIGAAARR!!
          then it looked too wordy, so I spaced it out a bit..

     In the Mudchat..
          Hues
          Decimals
          Packages
          Pokemons
          and Server Issues

MyGame.exe

          As soon as I see the .exe extension, I usually
          cancel the download.
          How about you?

Big Blocks of Data

          Is it better to have lots and lots of objects with
          tons of variables, or just cram it all into a great
          big bank of data?

Solving Insomnia

          As someone who stayed up until 4 in the morning,
          the other night, doing absolutely naff all, I
          wouldn't be the best person to advice Mr Machete on
          ways to sleep.

Ridley Vidley

          Ridley Scott's making a great big video, except he
          can't be bothered filming it.
          You film it!
          And do it tomorrow...

WTF is an Ibex?

          Is it a new camera to connect to your Xbox, or some
          weird-ass iPod add on.
          Take a peek..

Socoder Games

No games this week

          I did make a silly train/puzzle/sim game thingy,
          but it didn't seem Showcase Worthy...
bit.ly/ChuffedTracks

          Speaking of no games, Moshboy's skipped a week, too.
          Wonder if he's ok? Probably too busy..

          Let's skip on to Kaizen!

Pixel Prospector

Unfinished Awesomeness

Games that aren't done yet. Still cooking.

Frogatto

          A game that makes every single Indie game, ever,
          look like a rubbish little Indie game, by being one
          of the most professionally designed, 16-bit styled,
          polished, wonderful little platformers I've seen in
          a heck of a long time.
          Awesome!!
bit.ly/PPGames_Frogatto

Dooder

          Whereas this one looks more like Alex Kidd. Not
          that that's a bad thing, I loved the style of Alex
          Kidd. Nice "4 Powerups" gameplay to it, too.

Super Funk 1000

          A nice swirly mouse controlled shoot-em-up, in a
          lovely neon glowy fashion.
          \o/ Yeay \o/

Curly's Freeware

Ye-Indie Games

Games that people have forgotten about, plucked
from the past, and thrown into your floppy drive.

FreeCol

          A nice free Civilization/Colonization clone that's
          been in development for at least 4 years, judging
          by the date difference between the CWF post and the
          homepage's blog!
bit.ly/CWF_FreeCol

Slave Maker 3

This is Afr0's sort of game. Don't click it unless
you really really really want to click it!
