Spoiler For Projects:

My projects haven't been worked on in a while, so they're all on hiatus for the time being. I do hope to eventually return to them in some form or another...

Spoiler For Pokemon TI:
Axe port of Pokemon Red/Blue to the 83+/84+ family. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia:
My big personal project, an original RPG about dimensional travel and a few heroes tasked with saving the world.
Coding-wise, on hold, but I am re-working the story.

Spoiler For Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia Origins: Sky's Story:
Prequel to Nostalgia. On hold, especially while the story is re-worked.

Guys, it has nothing to due with Apple being a fail or whatever.  It has everything to do with the fact that Apple is following the law.  Seriously, Safari has parental controls, Opera does not.  I've got a computer desktop encyclopedia that has the same label.  It has nothing to do with Opera, just that it has access to the internet.

The law is weird. They put a 17+ label just because nothing keeps you from watching your porn with it. IMHO, they could have done like video game and say "Online content is not rated by the ESRB" or something, but no. They just scare people off with a 17+ label.

17+ damn them. I'm only 16.5 and I demand that browser. And really what the hell is a 17+ label supposed to even do. You may have noticed that they're not that hard to get around. and I know that I would get stabbed if I ever put an age checker on one of my calc games.

List of stuff I need to do before September:
1. Finish the Emulator of the Casio Prizm (in active development)
2. Finish the the SH3 asm IDE/assembler/linker program (in active development)
3. Create a partial Java virtual machine  for the Prizm (not started)
4. Create Axe for the Prizm with an Axe legacy mode (in planning phase)
5. Develop a large set of C and asm libraries for the Prizm (some progress)
6. Create an emulator of the 83+ for the Prizm (not started)
7. Create a well polished game that showcases the ability of the Casio Prizm (not started)

Because of the fear that you can access pr0n, and that there are no restrictions available to parents like Safari has.

This is funny xD apple goes downsizes itself by telling things like there to their users.
Everyone knows that apple's safari isn't the worst because micr0sof7 still insists on battling on the lost war of browsers :P

I disagree, Microsoft is fighting hard now with IE9, which is an opponent to Chrome and Firefox. They are not death, but only joined the war now.
