Agreed, and I actually made something useful :D

"The ** command by nemo: a full tutorial on decimal multiplication." should be changed to "The ** command by nemo: a full tutorial on fixed point multiplication." IMO, though.

Oh, and my tutorial's geared a lot toward enemy code as well :) So not "specifically" geared toward bullet systems.

Very cool.  I must have missed reading a few of those tutorials.
* Michael_Lee puts on his reading glasses
My website: Currently boring.

Projects:
Axe Interpreter
   > Core: Done
   > Memory: Need write code to add constants.
   > Graphics: Rewritten.  Needs to integrate sprites with constants.
   > IO: GetKey done.  Need to add mostly homescreen IO stuff.
Croquette:
   > Stomping bugs
   > Internet version: On hold until I can make my website less boring/broken.
