Hello World

          I've been playing oodles of Unreal Tournament, this
          week.
          Classic and UT2003 editions have been the versions
          of choice, mostly because they're the only ones I
          have.

          Is it worth upgrading to a newer one?

          ...
          I still play classic more than 2003, though, so
          probably not..

Last Week

     Things That Got Done
          Jay forgot to post the weekly "What have you done"
          post, this week.
          ugh..

          Jay's still relaxing!

          Leave him be!

Make Jay some Blocks

          Since he's too busy relaxing and playing games for
          a change, Jay wants you to make a bunch of tiles
          for a forthcoming game.

How to turn a car

Nobody answered this. That's quite disappointing.

BMX2

          Sounding a bit like a Codemasters game, Mark bashes
          away at a brand new version of Blitz, which seems a
          bit like hAxe, in that it compiles to a whole
          bucketload of random things.

Goto Links

HTML my PHP!

          JL235 builds a framework for his website, which
          takes little bits and pieces of text, and generates
          html from it.

"New File Released"

Let it be known, this is a really dumb title for a
post.

Monthly Compo

SPIL Games (*shrugs*) have created a monthly HTML5
game compo. Enter, win. Simple as can be!

Cower's Model things

Noel's loving this Mudbox thing, and has made even
more squishy looking globs with faces.

Doodles

          Afr0 draws a few pictures of nekid laydies. Jay
          shoves them into spoiler tags, because some folk
          read Socoder at work!

Doodle+

Afr0 also created a storyboard for his eventual
video.

Zombiepox

          A nice imaginative zombie game. Zombies eat
          humans, humans become zombies. Give zombie a
          brain, and zombie becomes human.
          Save all the zombies!!

Mr Blocko

          Keep Mr Blocko from getting squished by the bricks,
          by pushing them around to make complete lines.
          Nice and fast!

Deo Dorant

          A simple platform puzzler, with doors and
          teleporters, and all that jazz.
          Seems like a Jay-style title for a game.. "Hmmm..
          What, on my desk, can I use as the title?"

PixelProspector

          I'm only including Kaizen's choice of "In
          Development" games, here. If you'd prefer to see
          the finished games, try here..

Nikki and the Robots

          Nikki collects power cells which she then uses to
          power the robots to complete various puzzles.
          Has a style that reminds me of that 3D Fez game,
          from a while back.
