Earlier this week Clickteam announced the release of the MMF2 Flash exporter … this allows you to create games that run through Flash in your browser. Requires version 10 of the flash browser plug-in…I’m well impressed
From Clickteam’s website:
Finally, the MMF2 & TGF2...

Had this funny Retro game related snippet passed on to us today … if only more games existed like this back in the day who knows where we would be now.

Super Secret
Posted by Andy H on Wednesday 18th November 2009 | 3 Comments
About time I posted something about what I’m up to. Testing something super secret at the moment, very exciting, can’t say anything more about it … yet (so much for posting what I’m up to then ). Also been drawing some cartoon style doodles while playing around with neat...
Simple question, complex answer…
Posted by Andy H on Tuesday 8th September 2009 | No Comments
Our tumble dryer packed in recently and we had to buy a new one. A nice shiney new model arrived the other day and reading the instructions there is no mention of a feature that all the websites and reviews have been saying it has. So I send a question off to the well known company (name witheld...
Retro Goodies for Sale
Posted by Andy H on Monday 31st August 2009 | 2 Comments
I’ve some old Retro Gamer magazines for sale on eBay if anyone is interested. They’re all early volume 1 issues from 3 to 9 (but not 8 for some reason). These duplicate copies have been lying around for ages I thought I’d better get rid of them…no point in having two lots.
If...
Norton is dead, Long live ESET
Posted by Andy H on Thursday 13th August 2009 | 5 Comments
Norton Antivirus finally gave up today after my subscription expired. If you’ve been following our blogs recently, you’d have read that I had some comical Norton customer support that went no where. Well today it looks like the actual product is no better.
No sooner as it told me I...
Teserae Amiga game dug up
Posted by Andy H on Sunday 9th August 2009 | 2 Comments
I recently found an old Amiga game I made back in 1992 called Teserae and put it on the downloads list. The game was a remake of Teserae on the Atari ST which in turn was a remake of Tetris. You’ll need an Amiga or Amiga Emulator to play it. I’ve not created a disk image yet, so you’ll...
JAVA version of Echo the Mouse
Posted by Andy H on Monday 3rd August 2009 | 1 Comment
I made a game with Multimedia Fusion 2’s (MMF) new JAVA export around this time last year using my Echo The Mouse character. The game was to be used in a special JAVA version for BluRay players which had pretty low hardware specifications. As such the game had to be fairly simple. That...
Spriter animation tool
Posted by Andy H on Sunday 14th June 2009 | No Comments
I’ve picked spriter up again after a long rest. I started Spriter (i think) in 2004 when it looked more like DPaint. I decided to change it a few months later to look more Windows-ey which was a good idea as I could make use of the standard controls and windows. I kind of got side tracked...

C/C++ section added
Posted by Andy H on Saturday 9th May 2009 | No Comments
Just found a nice article on Cymon’s Games website about setting up a nice free C/C++ IDE, compiler and a selection of essential libraries so have added some information and further links under the Development menu. Thanks Cymon, pay him a visit if you are interested in learning more …...

Norton problems!
Posted by Andy H on Wednesday 15th April 2009 | 3 Comments
Not a great week for computery software reliability here in Ovine towers. Over the weekend I found a copy of Sega Rally Championship in a charity shop for a pound which said was XP compatible. Having many fond memories playing the original four seat arcade version many years ago I thought I’d...
Flash problems
Posted by Andy H on Thursday 9th April 2009 | No Comments
Yuk – sometimes you can waste an hour of your life trying to kick your computer into shape. Today I started up my lappy to only find You-Tube and our Tag Cloud not working. Both are using Flash. The videos on this site are fine, but not when viewing directly on You Tube. Uninstalling and...
