@nickgravelyn 8bit inspired tribute could be good. Lots of variety but also specific graphic and mechanic considerations
@nickgravelyn I really like the idea of theme challenges. They get people thinking and working on things they wouldn't normally.
@nickgravelyn I think it would have to be a very special and interesting theme to make it work.
Ok, I think I *finally* have the .NET PropertyGrid figured out enough to get some things in my level editor done with it.
I just found I had a pair of unworn slippers tucked away! Feel so good to wear.
I have just been rickrolled at work.
Ooh. Dante's Inferno preorder revealed. Guess I'm hitting up Gamestop soon. Since I was planning to buy it anyway, figure is a sweet bonus!
Feeling kinda overwrought at this point. So much that needs doing.
Found some good info on implementing Inverse Kinematics for some planned specialized animation for RunawayTank enemies. But now, sleep!
@jamesvenezia thanks :). I thought #runmaria was tough. Probably mostly due to the right to left. ground collision felt slightly offset too
@nickgravelyn the jump is actually based on Tony hawk Ollie mechanics. So it's one button for both speed up and jump to conserve button use
@nickgravelyn I'm definitely in for #xna7day again! And btw, would love to hear any thoughts on RunawayTank from you or anyone else.
On a total J-Rock kick.
My xbox controller for windows arrived. I can finally enjoy Spelunky with some degree of not sucking on my part. yay!

Finally bought Ikaruga on xbox arcade. Love this game, in spite of how terrible I am at it.
So I've been listening to "Secret of Mana Plus" nonstop recently. It's a prog-rock re-imagining of the soundtrack to Secret of Mana. And in my usual desire to complement my current infatuation with similar music, the closest thing I could find that I already had was post-Waters '80s Pink Floyd.
I got a haircut today. Took off a little more than I normally do, so now I look like Drew Carey.

It's too hard to find the specific type of jazz music I want. You read "jazz" as a band's style, and that basically tells you nothing.
I want to start a band called "Pre-multiplied Alpha."
