It’s been nearly a month since I last wrote something.

Okay, moving on.

What I’ve been up to

I haven’t worked on my own game too much recently. I’ll get to that later. Fabio is nearing completion with his exploration-platformer. You play as a little guy who has to rid …

Guitars

New blog, old week…

Guitars

Something I always wanted to do was build my own guitar. I would paint it with psychadelic designs and decals like Hendrix did. I don’t like most guitar shapes nowadays. Too many ugly ones like these:

Honestly, who would use those guitars. They look painful …

Interesting and unique game ideas are hard to come by.

Most of the time they are something familiar with a twist.

Some of the funnest games are not like this.

I played this

game just now. Since bbcode isn't working right now, here is the link:

Blog… COMMENCE!!!

I came back from Dubai yesterday. Arrived at 2 in the morning with AirArabia and got home at 3:30 am. Then I slept until one.

I didn’t get the name at first. It is a good game though, which I got off abandonia.com.

Like in my previous blog, I’m quite sure most of you don’t know what I’m talking about, so I’ll give a little background information first.

ESA’s Small Guide to Chiptunes

Classic video game music. Even if you don’t know what they are, chances are you’ve probably heard them in some old games and such. I’ve mentioned them in some of my previous blogs, but I’ll focus this one mainly on them. I’m sure most of …

I love football, but I bet not many people do on this site because the majority seems to be American (not that that's a bad thing). What I mean by football is "soccer", as you call it in North America. I've played football for eight years now.

I was shopping yesterday and I saw this pencil case (or something of the sort) with little triangles like the ones at the top right corner of 64digits. 'How strange!' I thought. Turns out the pencil thingy was made by Tombow, some Japanese company. My

Japanese friend has stuff from …
