| Projects Bob the Astronaut ![]()
Bob the Astronaut is based on a concept for a space exploration game. It involves traveling around space gathering resources and interacting with alien wildlife. The goal is to wage war against other alien races by exploiting animals and mining planets out of existence. There is no environmental message, just gratuitous cruelty and greed. The game's inspiration is Starflight, the best game ever made. I don't know why no one ever bothered to take the concept and extend it. So I'm doing exactly that. Wrong Century![]() Wrong Century is ABORTED. Wrong Century is a Tetris clone that runs entirely in the win32 console. The game mechanics are fully implemented and represent what I think is the ideal Tetris game; meaning high responsiveness, little delay between moves, the ability to do T-spin singles, doubles and triples with slightly more freedom than most implementations when it comes to rotating and inserting pieces into unlikely places. Unfortunately, I tried implementing more stuff into the game and ended up mangling the code to such an extent that bringing it back to a compilable state would be too much trouble. I might pick it back up again on a rainy day, but for now, it should be considered aborted. Here are two videos of it in action:
