No internet access!

  • In my first and previous post in this game dev log entry, I had written that I wanted to do a game which was a collection of simple retro games. Unity released a new major release (2019.3) while I was putting the initial project together, and I…

  • Well, I'm making a game . I'm spending the next few weeks on making a small game to showcase the gamedev log feature on tsumea where any member can create a game entry and other members can post journal posts with art, music or just development…

  • Just a test #2. Still working on the new section.

  • So, I got a Commodore 64 when I was in the 4th grade. It came bundled with a Rolf Harris picture building program on casette tape which never loaded properly but from what I could tell by its box cover, you could build pictures from a selection…

If things appear slow on the website in regards to news updates, or email replies.. well, there's a small reason. I don't have internet access anymore! (I'm doing this at a noisy internet cafe with kids playing Counterstrike all around me who should be at school, darn it!)
And to add to this, the cable which connects my usb port to the motherboard started burning. I have no idea why or how - maybe the cable got pressed against my gfx card ... well, it's burnt, and I can't replace it because the stupid card uses a proprietory cable.. I use the usb port for a mouse and digital camera, so now I'm using this really old mouse of mine which I've had to switch the left and right mouse buttons in windows, because the left button is real dodgy. Meh!

Love the update, Souri :)

Great stuff.

Oh yea - I totally understand about lack of net access. I am like in Canberra ISP hell :) Turns out I am on a RIM so no DSL. There's no cable in the street. So best hope is to get a second line installed and see if I get lucky enough to get a straight copper...

Yeh, I heard getting cable in Canberra is a bit hard.. Go dialup.. dialup is good! [;)] Having no internet access is a major bummer though. I was getting withdrawal symptoms..
I hope everyone digs the site redesign!
