OK so, I'm having fun with Construct 2, the game creator by Scirra. I have a couple of idea's I'd like to make with Construct, the question is, can i keep myself motivated to actually complete them. I don't know, we'll see.
So here's what I've made so far. My first attempt is a Dune 2 clone/remake/revisit.
Right now, all you can do is build and place a Wind Trap. Try it out here:
My Dune 2 clone/remake/revisit
If you want to try the original Dune 2 (the DOS version by Westwood Studio's), you can download a free copy here: Download Dune 2 from Abandonia
You'll need DOSBox to run it.

So there's this friend whom I haven't seen in over two years. She lives far enough away that we don't casually come across each other in everyday routine. I'm suddenly presented with the opportunity of actually going across most of that distance, so I'm definitely visiting. I know she'll be thrilled. Also there's a chance I'll have to stay for a few days. However... I have two ways to do so, and I'm finding it difficult to decide what to do. I can:
a) Tell her I'm coming. She'll love it and we'll both rejoice over the thought of meeting once again after such a long time. Plus there's the minuscule chance that she'll decide to take the day (or days) off at work.
b) Not tell her I'm coming, making it a surprise and maximizing the effect. I can plot with her friend to make sure she doesn't make other plans. It's the least thing she expects to ever happen and she'll crap her panties when she sees me there. BUT, I'd have to sit around idling for most of the day (or days) while she's at the office. Potentially boring myself to death.
What would you guys do? Also, those with girlfriends/wives, please ask them what they think and what they'd like if you can. Women see the world differently
I'd appreciate any comments and advice

I'm going on a little 'holiday' for about a week. I'm currently hospitalized for frontal sinusitis treatment. I really hope the treatment will go well and I won't require surgery. I'm really scared of that. It's the first time in my life when I have to be hospitalized.
The thing is, I don't quite have all the sinusitis symptoms besides the swelling of one sinus. It doesn`t hurt( yyonly when pressed hardly), and I don't have fever either. That's what scares me, I hope it's not something else.
If all goes well I'll be back in about a week.

Fun times for me! Person I was seeing went out with someone behind my back , My results in recent school tests have been dissapointing in everything apart from maths and physics , having to rush to find someone for prom and generally having shit depressing boring days.
And some people wonder why i'm a pessimistic cynic..
In other news , my competition is slowly coming together , with 1 1/2 rooms done. No way i'm going to have it done by the deadline...

Happy Halloween!
Also don't any candy that has been injected with heroin. I had to learn that the hard way.

Can't believe I get away with this shit.
Just got Arkham City, Crysis 2 and Space Marine courtesy of gaming magazine PC Gamer (UK) for doodling a picture of Half-Life for them in MS Paint.
I've now received about 12 AAA games and my £1500 ($2,420 USD) PC from them over the past 2 years. I think I might be taking advantage of them.

So, I'm checking my email while getting on my costume(Yes I go to school dressed up), and I see this
"My name is Jane. I'm a single young girl willing to talk with people and learn more about
each others culture and ways of leaving because friends are like clothes without them you feel naked ,I hope to have a good communication with you if you care no matter
the space and distance.............................
I am interested in having a relationship with you, I will appreciate it if you write back to my email add (jane4loveutoo@yahoo.com) so that we can communicate and move from here
Hope to hear from you.
Big Kiss Jane. "
I'm such a fucking pimp.
I think she wants my penis.

This week is a fun week! Today I went to the MCM Expo in London, great fun, a lot of nice costumes (except a fat mermaid that will hunt my dreams forever). Yesterday I went "mountain boarding" with my friends, it's like skateboarding but down a mountain, the board is bigger and has big wheels. I nearly broke my arm at that, My arm will be ok but i can still barely move it. Tomorrow I will have to go to another party as well! Cool week!
I just bought some kind of alcohol bitters drink from the pharmacy. The formula for the herbal essences is almost the same with the Swedish Bitter.
It's the first time I get to drink such a beverage. The taste is awesome, and it leaves a pleasant aroma in my mouth after I drink it.

So I've decided to start a new series of videos regarding minor issues that are on my mind.

How to get a Halloween costume, by TJB:
•Get a bus to town
•Take €25 out of the ATM
•Buy a suit in a charity shop
•Find out that was all the money in your bank account
•No bus back now
•Spend hours walking back home without knowing which way to go
At least I got home eventually

Review: Star Trek Enterprise
Watching Enterprise finally. Even though i'm a big fan of star trek i just never got around to watching it when it was on tv, but looked forward to the day i could watch the entire series on dvd. Unfortunately i have to say i am severely disappointed.
Visually, the show is amazing, with sets, props, cgi effects, and ship design(particularly the alien ships, which are amazing), which are second to none compared to all the Star Trek tv series, but that's where the compliments end.
These are the voyages of a crew you for the most part, can't be bothered to care about and a captain who is a full-blown douche. Character development for some of the alien races seems way better, and it makes you wonder why more attention wasn't taken to make the crew of the enterprise nx-01 more insteresting.
Implausible, boring storys seem to dominate this beleagured show, though of course there are a few episodes that pull through and are actually ok.
Space battles(my favourite part of the star trek franchise), get better as time goes on, especially when enterprise finally gets photonic torpedoes and phase cannons. Sadly though most altercations seem recycled from every previous one; it's all very formulaic:
1. captain is informed unknown vessel approaching
2. captain askes comms officer to hail
3. enemy charges weapons
4. captain orders hull plating and weapons activated
5. enterprise gets pummeled but somehow survives.
6. enterprise runs away barely escaping destruction
7. "Trip" ordered to make repairs in approx 6 hours
8. repeat
Many times they don't even show the weapons being fired, and you only know the battle is over when the tactical officer says "direct hit captain, their engines are disabled". I mean, really? At 30 million an episode, you'd think they would at least try to throw you a bone.
Seasons 1 and 2 start out ok, and because the season is new you are willing to put up with some crap. Stories are mostly boring, but at least the introduction of the Temporal Cold war is interesting, and Sulliban are intereting alien enemies. Episodes involving crewman daniels explaining the origins of the TCW are particularly interesting.
Season 3 takes the glint of promise from seasons 1 and 2 and flushes them right down the trans-dimensional-temporal-rift toilet, with the ENITRE SEASON focused on the Xindi/sphere-builder crisis. Season 3 is like one, long episode that sucks, and at the end you wonder how the producers allowed this to happen.
THEN, just when noone could possibly think the show could go any farther down the poop shoot, yup, you guessed it: it does. =/
Season 4 boldly nosedives to a low no viewer has seen before, full of poorly-written stories and more recycled garbage from previous seasons, namely, rehashing the whole trans-dimensional/temporal war thing(even though they just got done failing at it the season prior). The producers seem to realize this halfway through the season and appear to try to make changes, with a series of unrelated 2-3 episode "cliffhangers" that all seem to suck almost as bad.
That is all. Dismissed.
