Ya, um....maybe I could take a peek

*yawn*

God I need more sleep sometimes.

No worth wild news on my side. I did some poking into Zelda and it's a strange game. It checks for the DD differently then F-zero or the IPL. Have not gotten anywhere with it tho because my stupid anti spyware app keeps always making me aprove the app to run when I modify the code (it changes the .exe size) and if I dont respond quick enough then Visual studio times out and I am stuck with a exe running I can't kill nor be able to continue debugging with visual studio (untill I reboot). Damn

Small other news, I'm still in love with my iQue. I got to play a little more of zelda and was able to beat the deku tree (so I have the green stone).

Nothing new about the jdx 301.

I recently started thinking of a new game idea (yeah, long before I even fished ones I was working on, yet again). God I wish I had an artist who could do the style of art I wanted. I would be able to do so many cool concepts with out getting bored of the one i'm on due to me wasting so much time thinking out the art style or trying to build up temp art to even code. :S

Forgive me n64 gods for I have sin.

Sorry but I just got bored and I have had this cart of Banjo-kazooie for quite some time. I found it for cheap at a local ebgames (like $10 i think). My n64 is japanese so it wont fit. I wont dare take apart my n64 since I want to keep it in great shape (i bought it a while back when I got my n64DD so i can hack the system).

On the brighter side, I'm getting two more n64 games in the comming months. I am finaly getting Mario64 Shindou Edition which was a re-release of mario64 in that included rumble support and voice overs (jpn launch M64 lacked voice overs that the usa version recieved). I actualy already have WaveRace64 Shindou Edition but still lack a rumble pak. Maybe this is a reason for me to get off my ass and get one or atleast get Starfox64 with rumble (ebay has one). I'm also getting animal forest for n64. I actualy quite liked playing animal crossing on gamecube (not so much the DS ver). It will be fun to see the differences between the gcn and n64 version (i read a few online).

On lighter notes I started french class at work today. Quite fun I must admit. French in high school was a total bore and the private tutor lessions I had in the past were not very fun since it's just me and the tutor for one hour. This class was more interactive with group games. Looking forward to my next class next week (they are 3 hours long).

As for coding. God it's hard to focus on one thing at a time. Discussion of Max Payne 2 on neogaf almost sent me into a crazy idea last night to try making a clone for psp (hell i did iris which was on the right path, just needed more work). Bad idea over all tho since I still want to do puzzle games ATM. Maybe i'll reconsider this idea again after I finish my puzzle games.

Erm thats all for now.

Uggg. I hate being sick.
-.-

I had the flu since wednesday of last week and now i'm still a bit sick (I cough a lot). God i'll be quite happy when i'm over this crap.

Other then that, I started *again* to write out a design blueprint for a new engine. My simple 2D engine works but it not enough. So I am rebuilding an engine from scrach that will properly work across PSP/OGL so I can hopefuly get crap done faster. Interesting enough i'm giving up on 2D again (cant do 2d with out a *!@#ing artist) so hopefuly I can do some fun little 3D work (i'll post pictures when ever I get something cool running).

One last thing, Thanks to a coworker I am now playing Me & My Katamari on PSP. Such a fun little game to play.

ok is monkey64 dead or you didnt get the cold out of your system cause there has not been one post for like 16 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PSmonkey]

Sadly enough. I'm still sick which sucks so badly. I am mostly over it now but still feel a little crappy (and every once in a while i get a fevor again). ARGGGGGGG


Oh I got something interesting to show off this weekend. I did a demo for my gf for Valentines day but since she is so busy with school we are not celebrating till this weekend (i'm making her cookies!!! plus I got some flowers yesterday). So I gotta polish it up tonight but i'll record some video of something I threw together over the past two days.

--edit--
BTW, Thank you for questioning my well being. I was starting to think nobody gives a crap if I continue to post here. Which makes me a sad monkey.

Glad to see people still read this section.

Its not that I given up, i can't post my work online due to my contract with work. Sucks because since I have access to devkits I probably could write something pretty damn nice (in terms of a 3D game or n64 emu).

Would you ever consider reviving Monkey64?
