This of interest?

All it means IMHO is that Franxis is like the rest of us who work in this environment all day, every day - he's taking a well-deserved break..?

It's a shame that the US has bastardized (sic) spelling <_< It's this guy's fault.

You lot are gonna be bloody unbearable when you actually have a pandora! :unsure: :)

No, "toxte". :huh:

Yeah, 'texted' is awful, but "I sent you a text" is a bit long-winded.... Dunno the answer to that.

I believe it comes from Latin: pro minare: to drive (animals) forward ie pro: 'forward' minare: 'to drive' (animals) English is a real mishmash of other languages like all other languages. Apart from US English which is generally just laziness :P eg Lazer, Americans I know didn't know...

Yes.. I think Mandriva is fine for the total beginner and experienced user. I tried switching to ubuntu a few months ago and didn't get on with it, although it seems the most popular. Roll your own was a 'joke' - but it doesn't hurt to read about how OSes work.

I would :P

Mandriva :) or 'roll your own'.

Dunno if this thread is of any use - sorry no time to check properly. http://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=23471

The allegro rotate is very fast - uses fixed point... Be nice if someone with a pandora ported allegro... :) especially if they then ported allegro-gl.

Exit the game? Wyy would you want to do that? :) Will look into it; I remember I had problems and maybe I didn't complete it... ( Got a feeling I may have removed the exit option(?!) in my frustration ) edit: Mmm... quite a few people have downloaded; with the posts here as well... Now that's...

Great! I'll take all comments, etc on board :) Sbock said on the archive it's like a c ross between defender & robotron - I thought a mix of defender (mainly) and asteroids. Re the radar, yeah, that's an easy change - will look into that; only problem is the radar would have to grow in size so...

Found a bit of time to post.. Cheers to all for the posts/comments/interest :) Volume buttons in-game change laser configuration - less beams, more points per kill. Config took me 'too long' to write and it's still not too great :( Seems to work okay on my F100.. Basic buttons work best...

They're back... Well I started this well over a year ago and had 6 months off due to work commitments.. (still ongoing). Thought I'd never release it, but here it is - hopefully it's enjoyable for a quick blast (20 Levels). I've taken Eugene Jarvis's arcade games as inspiration, so expect some...
