Hello! Glad you got it sorted One thing that seems to throw a few people off with regards to BTDT's puzzles is that they're all thoroughly logical. There's no madcap, improbable solutions to anything (I don't think) which is odd because most adventure games have a few 'use monkey's hand with ********* to get past the grumpy sailor' puzzles With regards to a Gibbage sequel: it's definitely happening. We're shooting for an XBLA release which is probably a bit unlikely, especially given that the studio's very much a part-time affair... so we need to shift some serious numbers of games in order to be able to afford to pay to get it done 'properly'. I'm not committing to a full-on online HD Xbox version unless it gets coded properly, arted properly and what-have-you. And that's going to require serious £££, I'm afraid. Business, eh? Tsh. Anyway- enjoy BTDT. Have a download of Cruxade as well - I know it's a block-dropper, but it's surprisingly good fun. Like Lumines, only BETTERER. EDIT: out of interest, why have your forums censored the word 'pine' 'apple'? That's an unusual thing to have done. Do I win a prize?

Sounds like someone's hankering for a good old game of GIBBAGE...! [that link above goes to my 'anti big games' article, btw, which explains pretty much why I wrote Gibbage...] Sorry, I'll stop going on about Gibbage, now. ps buy gibbage.

Sonic Rivals trailer, at last! Looks ace! No, wait, rubbish. No, ace! No, rubbish. Ooooh can't decide, can't decide.

That bit where Sonic skids on his arse made me smile, though. I have highish hopes.

Creepy, I had that exaclt same idea yesterday while driving past that big Windfarm rotatey-thing just outside London on the M4 yesterday. I came to the conclusion that, in order to be cost effective in the slightest, they have to be massive.

Sorry to go back to blithering on about Gibbage, but: Woo hoo! PCZone's review of Gibbage is out today, and it was raaaather favourable! I'm extremely happy! I'm off to count the doubtless neverending tide of money that's about to start flying my way...! Dan ps ooh, there's more info on what they said here.

Yeah, I figured I'd better stay out of it. My favourite bit is where Russ says: "My guess is that Gibbage saw some sales due to the round-up." Nope. Not one.

There's no way I'll let them sell it. Until sales comepletely dry up, at which point I'll let any old crook flog it in the hopes of making a little extra beer money...!

Not a chance! After the creidt card peoples' fees and transfer fees, I make little enough cash out of this little enterprise as it is!

Groovy. Let me know how you get on...! Cheers for the comments, guys. It just got reviewed on GameTunnel who, moments after deciding it was 'meh' offered to sell it for me taking a large slice of the profits. Unbelievable.

They do a round up of 5 Indie games each month. This month, I'm number one, which is the best number to be.

Boo to 'facts' and 'truth' I hear the Sony PS3 will make you blind and plugs directly into your nipples.

Ha ha ha ha haha. Sony really don't have a clue what they're doing anymore, do they?! Ha ah ah ha ha haah ha ha. This'll keep me going all through the winter.

Now that makes me want a DS...!

Hmmm. Sonic Rush tempts me. But everything else I've seen looks... weak. Sorry. Different folks, different strokes, I guess...!

That's quite possibly the only thing that has ever made me want a DS. Lucasarts/ Nintendo: do it. Do a proper version. DoTT, too. Now.

I can't remember if I did that. What happens if you do/ don't do that?

Ragnar made a comment on his blog that has been annoying me for weeks: that there's something quite minor you can do right at the start of the game that has an impact on the ending. I wonder if this is it?!

I'll point you this way again for my point of view; Stop Getting Sonic Wrong Since reading peoples' responses to that, I'll add "keep him mute" to my list, especially having caught a bit of the god-awful cartoon on Breakfast Teev this morning. Truly horrible wise-cracking little nob. Ben, perhaps you could print it out and stick it on a noticeboard at Sega or something. Or an everyone email. Before it's too late. ... it's too late already, isn't it? Nnngh.

Agkh. Ak. Akkkk. No no noooo. Wrong. Sick stupid bad. Awful. "Boo!" "Boooooooo!"

From what I've read, it's not setting anyone's world on fire, which is a shame, as the original was ace.

Mmmmffff.... no sound on PC at work. Looks ace, though. Little things, like how Max nods at the start make me smile. Love it. Can't wait. How do you do those thumb things? Ah. Here. Yes. :tup:

This is the best idea I ever had. The possibilities are limitless. Shall I start an online petition to get it made?!

I just realised I started this thread at 11:38. That's a personal triumph. Sorry, what was the topic?!
