Recently Watched: The Illusionist - not bad, but not as good as The Prestige - really enjoyed that one - didn't figure it all out till very near the end :) Journey to Centre of the Earth - amusing, but forgettable. I Know Who Killed Me - rubbish Cloverfield - not bad National Treasure 2 - ok...

Q2 video very impressive - was wondering for a moment if I was gonna get rickrolled again :D

centus beat me to 'Space Risk' as it is the board game 'Risk' but set in space. Had the same type of game when I was young set in space - it was called 4000AD - although that had the player using hypersapce jumps so you couldn't tell where he was going to attack until he 'jumped out of...

That would have been so good if it was real... especially for 70 euros!

Found this on my travels: Source: http://www.allegro.cc/ Captain Crusader and the Martian Invasion v1.20 11-25-2008 1:28 AM | mik_cc A new version is now available which includes many months worth of bug fixes and gameplay improvements to the original game. Alongside this major update...

You could look at /proc/meminfo - the 'MemFree' line - that has helped me spot memory errors that I probably wouldn't normally have the time to test for.

She looks a bit young for him... :D

So 2d acceleration isn't accessible yet either ???

Yeah, much too much time spent in amusement arcades during the early 80s :) I remember especially when Galaxian was released (about 1980? If so I was 13 or 14 - happy days) - we were so in awe of the colour graphics. Watching good players on Defender... that sticks in my mind. Not the same any...

I thought during the 80s, there weren't many arcade cabinets in Russia... in fact I thought there was only one (I forget info) however this link says different: http://www.wired.com/gaming/hardware/multi...ry_soviet_games

I'll try to find some time to test this out. Thanks Orkie (and team) :)

I have an intel binary that runs under mandrake... I'll take a look to see what dynamic libs it needs; pretty sure they're all static. Used libs (from memory) are allegro, gtk, dumb... Keys are just setup on my laptop to use ESDX for left control and IJKM for right (tried to match gp2x layout)...

Everything you need to know is here.

Hehe, I sometimes feel like that actually - it's being talked to death and I'm bored with owning one now(!).

Yeah, the Version 1 Pandora's so old-hat now.. ;)

I'd be keen to work on the kernel (stuff I do often at work anyway) and/or port allegro or contribute in some other way (26 years experience), but really don't have the time to commit to it. Shame, would have loved to get involved. :(

If I had time I'd promise to port allegro to pandora and you could play it on that :)
