I think " Storm Lilian " happened last night, or at least it did in the Surrey / South London area. It was like the weather was having a panic attack. Constant endless thunder, lightning. When I got up there was still the afterglow of lightning flashes in the distance. Nothing about it in ...

Following on from that, I keep seeing a magazine at my local WH Smiths called "Amiga Addict". This is the latest issue:

Speaking of, I've been enjoying these series of Red Dwarf "reactions":

They're up to the middle of series seven now.

CandyDarling

Okay, I think it's sorted out. Sorry about that.

CandyDarling

Ah. I'll get to fixing it...

CandyDarling

Thank you!

I also put this on itch earlier:

The Singing Grandfather

I got a Sylvanian Families living room set, to help house my Red Panda family.

It came with a fake TV that you can switch out the pictures of, and I chose one that is labelled "NEWS", and the main bit of the image is a close up of a bear pointing at the camera, mouth open

I also loved it!

I didn't know what Super Spy was, so I looked it up on Youtube , and I want to know why it was considered to be worth a whole pound more than JetPac and Cookie Also I knew someone whose parents got them a BBC Electron. Their brother turned into a Tory later in life. I don't think the two events are ...

I have been playing the 3D remake of Colossal Cave Adventure by Roberta Williams. The original was one of the first ever text adventures from the late 70s. I'm quite enjoying it, despite the inevtiable "moon logic" puzzles. So far I've managed to rescue three treasures... and used a fourth...

CandyDarling

Thanks!

CandyDarling

Thank you both!

The web version of the Renpy engine ought to work on Safari - it might be due to it being outdated, though, as you said.

Incidentally this has had quite a few views so far. Roughly 50 or so plays in one day, which is a record for me.

CandyDarling

A new thing on itch.io:

Streaming Christmas Movie Simulator

CandyDarling

Ah yeah, Out Of The Trees. It's a bit like a lost Python episode with just Chapman, and all the other usual parts played by different people. Before the recording was discovered, only the script remained and some weird American bloke claimed he had full copyright over it.

CandyDarling

I also love the bottom one

CandyDarling

Happy very belated Bruce day from me!

CandyDarling

the bbc should have archived them in the first place shouldn't they even people who were in the shows who wanted copies for themselves, the bbc refused them. They actively went out of their way to destroy stuff. So sometimes the cast/crew would sneak stuff out. The bbc should be thankful they did f...

Sorry that I've not posted much round here as of late... but Version 3 of my cat cafe is now on itch.io. It now features two new cats, random cat movement (code may be buggy), and additional "flavour text".

CandyDarling

Annoyingly I've had to delete that video as someone claims it's "stolen and not intended for public viewing" or something. Not sure what the deal is precsiely but I'm not taking any chances. Gah.

CandyDarling

In a weird turn of events, I myself have (re)uploaded something that is effectively a follow up to the previous video David Bowie - The Laughing Gnome (TOTP Bowie-less promo, 1973) This has sort of accidentally fallen in my lap. It was uploaded by someone else earlier this month, I saved it off of Y...

Thank you, everyone!

Your Own Personal Cat Cafe

Virtual text based cat cafe simulation! Linking to the version on my website even though it's on itch.io as well, because there's a non-game-breaking yet very annoying visual bug that only happens on itch.

CandyDarling

Ah yeah, I saw LGR's review of that a while ago, he didn't like it either! He also got hold of a palmtop 386 from the same manufacturer, and said they were more like proof of concepts than actual products. He was especially unhappy with the screens, which looked rubbish in the video let alone in rea...

I also need to post this recent discovery that's now fully emulated on MAME as well... CUBE QUEST A combination of Laserdisc video backgrounds with early filled 3D models, from 1983! Has some excellent opening narration, which now feels like a parody of early 80s sci-fi. The only other non-vector 3D...

...which is really expensive. The fifth one is going to become available from the end of October, and even with the cheapest model (4GB RAM), you also have to get a new case with a built in fan (because you simply can't run the new one without cooling) and also a new type of power supply. When added...

Here's the next best thing - a bootleg ZX Spectrum hardware-based Inspector Gadget game, which was produced as an arcade cabinet in early 90s Russia. Emulated in MAME! http://adb.arcadeitalia.net/dettaglio_mame.php?game_name=brod And this is the original, a Melbourne House "joint"... https...

Thanks! I remain a fan of things like Spike's "Q" series (despite the dodgy bits...)

These and the first one are from Alexei Sayle's Stuff, Episode 1.

CandyDarling

I don't quite understand the itch.io counters either. But I do seem to have a very low level constant stream of people browsing my stuff and occasionally giving it a shot, which is nice.

More kazoo silliness, themed this time

Thank you both! It was quite a time.

Also, click click click don't click click.

If you look at it sideways, the second picture is a display of "cat attitude", hip hop variant

CandyDarling

I really like this, and it appears to work in Firefox! Though I only completed one round so far

Apologies for the lack of response to this until now, I was at my sister's wedding so the last few days have been quite hectic / emotional

CandyDarling

Also Flashpoint is a preservation platform / app that emulates not just Flash but also a virtual dial up mini internet to allow certain things to work

And there is a censored version of it available for some territories, due to all the porn there was on Newgrounds

CandyDarling

This is all so strange

I did find this old thing on there, though, which I liked at the time, and still sort of do. I miss the "animutation" style

The funny thing is that Opera is meant to be a "gamer browser" now, that can play HTML5 stuff brillantly - except it doesn't at all and has all sorts of issues. I looked some specs for it up and the app seems to be insanely inefficent The Opera browser people also purchased Game Maker Stud...
