Old School Games

Started up some old school games this week. Angband (google: angband) - played on the mac or PC, not getting very far. I seem to remember a mode where you could let it roll overnight based on some constraints.

Space War - the game John Thielges and I played on a PC-AT compatible. To run, use D-Fend at 500 Hz. Interestingly, based on the Lensman series for which a script is in the works for start in 2011?

Flightmare - a three-d flight game using two perspectives to coordinate - requires multiple key blocks for the different dimensions. To run, use D-Fend at 500 Hz.

Odd this site didn't have the Ancient Art of War series.

2d Playground

Playing around with box2d. Is it a good library for use in AutoDuel? Not sure yet.

playground03.html

It requires prototype.js, not jquery.

Sometimes crashes firefox (this is not good).

Fun to watch in random mode.

Lenticels

Those lines on birch bark and the freckles on apples, are lenticels.
