Hamster Ball

OK, it's official. This is the best Marble Madness inspired game ever. Truly awesome!

One of the threads over at www.remakes.org has a link to the beta version of Hamster Ball which I tried out last night; jesus it's addictive. Do yourselves a favour, download the beta version and give it a try. You won't regret it.

Blank Expression

It's all happening today; my new FX5600 Ultra card has just decided to give up the ghost. Great.

Luckily I've still got my old Ti4200 card that I hadn't got around to selling on eBay just yet, so I'm still up and running. Hopefully the FX5600 can be repaired/replaced in time for Half Life 2... ;-)

First Steps

Bec just called me to say that Zak has just taken his first steps on his own. Why is it that things like this always happen when I'm not around? :)

The Naked Coder

I hope to God that Don Box isn't suggesting that he's going to be coding in his birthday suit in public!

Warning Forever

I've come across an absolutely fabulous vertically scrolling shooter called Warning Forever which you can find here: http://www18.big.or.jp/~hikoza/Prod/index.html#wf

The site is in Japanese so I've absolutely no idea who's written it or why, but it's a really addictive and simple game with some gorgeous effects. Class stuff.
