Aaargh! That’s another lunchtime been completely devoured. Mission 11 (I think – I keep losing count) involves recovering some bots from an empty factory. Needless to say, it doesn’t stay empty for long. Anyway, I have a whole wheen of the little beggars all powered up and armed to the teeth. I only have one

Well, that was easier than expected – but I only got an advanced not an Elite 🙁 Mostly because I didn’t wipe out the whole enemy presence, but merely gubbed the woofy things and made good my escape. Anyhoo, chapter 10 complete and I’m off to the bot factory.

VICTORY GET! Chapter 9 has been pwn0red. Chapter 9 was essentially a rescue mission, so armed with two new squad members, it’s now time to FLEE! So I’m FLEEING. I have to cross a valley to get back to base, but I want to kill off any pursuing woofy things so they don’t follow me

From this section of the site, you can download the free video game remakes I’ve written. I haven’t done any new ones in quite a while, but all the old RetroSpec titles are here. Sadly, the source code to these was lost in a house fire, so if you find any bugs – tough 🙂

Still on the rescue mission – it’s a little tricky. The map is pretty big and there seem to be quite a few nasties lurking around. Also, having a bigger team (5 squad members now) makes each turn take a good deal longer to work out. Unlike games like Laser Squad Nemesis, which are structurally

Muhh – romping through chapter 8. Thank god for mid-battle saves, cos each level takes and age (to do well). Carlos has joined my little gang and we’re currently on a most unprecedented expedition to rescue some silly bint who got herself captured. Fortunately, said silly bint has MAD MEDICAL SKILLZ, which is just as

Why is it? Why? Why do I have a binary cooker? It has four gas outlets. One small, two medium and one large. Each of these outlets has six settings – from off to full. This is fine. This is not, however, reality. The reality is that my cooker is a binary cooker. It has

Levels 7 and 8 Eliteified. And there’s a benevolent dream-alien called Klaatu. I wonder if he has mates called Barata and Nikto. Anyway, managed to escape from a sneak trap and also help a new squaddie called Carlos to escape from a green-bogie camp. ACEBEST

Five men arrested. By 500 policemen. That’s 100 policemen each. They must have really expected a struggle. Imagine my surprise at finding that the five men were neither Jedi who had fallen to the dark side, nor mutants with terrifying supernatural powers but were, in fact, some young lads who happen to live on a

Hooray! Chapter 6 c0mplet0red! That means I’ve officially…….. finished the tutorial! But, I did get “Elite” gradings for all 6 chapters. And it only took about four and a half hours in total. The Evil End Of Game Boss in Zelda is a distant memory.
