Castle Crashers

Tonight i downloaded a fantastic game on XBOX Live Arcade called Castle Crashers.

It's basically in the same vein as other slash-and-hack games (I love Streets of Rage) but it's super quirky, brilliantly animated and quite taxing.

I'm betting the multiplayer is immense. Can't wait to try that out.

Love uncov

There is a fantastic blog called uncov which is poking holes in the Web 2.0 bubble, so you don't have to:
There's no way I could sleep tonight without ripping the shit out of Pownce. The only thing that really irritates me about Pownce is that it has to exist on the same internet that I use.
It's utterly fantastic.

The last 4/5 weeks have certainly been very busy for me but also highly enjoyable.

Also, Just Blaze uses WordPress! Who knew?

I do intend to post about what i've been up to and what i will be doing. It's all very exciting :)

More DTD

I made this Desktop Tower Defence layout in Fun mode. Nothing groundbreaking but i thought id post it because it's nicely symmetrical. Finished with 17 lives remaining with 6293 points (i think) :)

Orange Broadband

I was going to blog about how poor Orange Broadband customer support is until i realised it wasnt worth the effort. I drew this^ on an index card whilst i was on hold.

Streets of Rage

According to the list on Wikipedia, Streets of Rage is due for it's Virtual Console release on March 2. I really hope this isnt the case! I have too much work at the moment without amazing classic games getting in the way.

Alka-Seltzer

Feeling rough because you've over-indulged on the alcoholic beverages the night before? Alka-Seltzer dissolvable tablet things taste disgusting but they'll make you feel much better!

Heart FotoQuest Fishing

So i cant sleep and what do you do when you cant sleep? Play on the mindlessly boring games on your phone.

Problem is, i got hooked playing an amazing game called FotoQuest Fishing (no pun intended) and it's amazing! What you do is use your joystick to take pictures of different fish! I sh_t you not, im easily amused. My highest scoring photo is 2548.

This game came with my Sony Ericsson k800i, i dont know if it lives on any other phones.

Updates

My large project for school is due in sooner rather than later and im dedicating most of my time towards that :( Im now moving away from the documentation and cracking on with the actual coding which is quite liberating. Documentation sucks.

The case for my D40 should arrive tomorrow by all accounts - nice. It's amazing what that camera can do.

Im also re-working my way through the Harry Potter series. Im finding reading is good for breaks between coding though i can happily go 5/6 hours before needing a rest.

Also? I posted something here with Blogger Mobile on Monday and it never went through! Must still be stuck in the tubes :/

Weather

Check out the weather. When it snows up here its a bit of a nightmare. I have to be in school on Thursday morning and apparently all the snow is going to fall during the rush hour :<

Happy days.
