The 2011 Christmas Haul. And End of Year Stuff Too, I Guess

Roy42 — Mon, 26 Dec 2011 02:50:44 +0000

So hey, merry Christmas! Or, as I’ve taken to saying the catch-all statement that isn’t as vague as “happy holidays”, merpy Christmahanukwanzakah Solstice! I hope everyone had a good day, or at least a better day than whatever their usual is. For me, it went just about how it always does. Breakfast and presents with …

NaNoWriMo – I Finished It

Roy42 — Thu, 01 Dec 2011 10:33:17 +0000

Um…Yeah. I finished NaNoWriMo. I can’t really think of anything to say about it at the moment, but here’s a link to the story. You can view it chapter-by-chapter, and suffer the formatting constraints that FictionPress places on anything you read there, by clicking this link. And you can read the whole thing in PDF …

NaNoWriMo – Update #1

Roy42 — Sat, 05 Nov 2011 14:10:51 +0000

For the uninitiated… Okay, I don’t really have time to explain NaNoWriMo. I’ll assume most people reading this already follow me on Twitter anyway. But just in case, go here — NaNoWriMo.Org — to learn all about National Novel Writing Month. This is my first time participating in the event. I said I’d post an excerpt …

Bouncing Princess Freakout – Prototype

Roy42 — Sat, 06 Aug 2011 00:58:18 +0000

During the month of June, I, along with three other programmers and five or six artists were tasked to make a quick prototype. The only two criteria our teachers gave us were the mechanic — platformer — and the name, Bouncing Princess Freak. We managed to weasel a change in the title into our final …

F.U.N Podcast – It’s Still A Thing!

Roy42 — Thu, 23 Jun 2011 11:18:02 +0000

What? Of course I’m committed to this thing. So in the second of our test podcasts, Jordan and I discuss musical games, post-Duke Nukem Forever trauma, Super Smash Brothers ideas and lots lots more (that I won’t list because I forget all the tangents we ran off on)! This took less than a week to …

Another New Thing?!

Roy42 — Thu, 19 May 2011 08:41:53 +0000

So I may have stopped doing that weekday movie thing a couple of months ago, but that didn’t mean I’m done talking across the Internet, no sir! Presenting the F.U.N Podcast, beta edition! What does it stand for? Well since I’d forgotten the name until the end of recording, you’ll have to listen to find …

This Year’s Birthday Haul

Roy42 — Tue, 17 May 2011 03:13:10 +0000

I had a good birthday this year, and I’ve walked away with quite a nice load of stuff. Check it out! So, to begin with, on the morning of my birthday last Wednesday, my brother turned up and asked me to hold up the silver case he was holding. And it was fucking heavy! A …

Is Honesty The Best Policy?

Roy42 — Mon, 14 Mar 2011 23:51:43 +0000

Well I just saw a Twitter post by Random, a.k.a MegaRan. The exact tweet is as follows: Today’s essay question: is honesty the best policy? Is it ever okay to lie? Explain using specific reasons and examples. So, let’s give it a go, huh? Since it’s an incredibly subjectivist question, I wanna try and steer …

And The Minicast Was No More

Roy42 — Wed, 02 Mar 2011 09:28:21 +0000

I really didn’t plan for it, but the Minicast lasted for 42 episodes. Go figure. Anyway, Minicast is done. I’m done putting out one every weekday. There’s various reasons as to why, but they’re hardly important. All that is is it being over. And if absolutely anyone had ever listened to any of them (which …

I Take It Back! Minicast, 03/01/11

Roy42 — Tue, 01 Mar 2011 10:55:34 +0000

Month three; look at me! Still going strong with this…whatever it is I’m doing here. Well, here’s to the next two months. So I watched that “Prince of Persia” movie that came out last year. You know, “The Sands of Time”. And while it was my first time watching it, I still sorta felt like …
