It depends, is it possible to win and/or lose the game?

EDIT: I actually lost ._.

Nope. It's a port of this.

I've actually been meaning to write one for some time, since the improvement schedule on the real one is too slow for my taste.

EDIT: Aaaaahhhhh! Creepy frog face  O.O

Oh awesome! I loved that game. I'm not sure if that would be a game but I think it might be fine under puzzle, kinda like game of life. MTV Music Generator for the Playstation 1 was considered as a game, after all, and you couldn't win nor lose. :P

I like it too and I managed to get Darl addicted to it  ;D

I'll post a screenie and a topic once I fix these block errors in my water code. I tried to emulate the real thing as much as possible, even down to the mouse.

Cool, I would like to see it in action. :)

How are you gonna handle colors, though? Since you only have 4 shades of gray it will be hard to distinguish everything from each others.

Also Nitro is awesome. :evil:

Imagination  :P

That's the only real way to do it. I could do dithering or something, but it wouldn't work for individual particles and would looking confusing for liquid mixtures.

And no nitro either. The calc simply isn't powerful enough to handle the potential fields necessary to make explosions in real time. Maybe on the Prizm, but not the Z80.

Aw no nitro, it's ok, though, it will be awesome nonetheless. :D

With the current menu layout, I have room for... this is way off topic. I need to make a separate topic for this.

Indeed you should probably post a new topic in the projects sections ;D

Yay :P

On a side note, this year POTY started early. I remember some years it started around mid-December and results got announced in February. X.x

Nah, Ticalc.org was just kinda dormant at the time. Ultima V got featured 3 months after it came out, that year, and I remember sometimes they had no news for 3 months and it took over one month to get files processed.

They never got to 1300 files in the pending queue again since 2003, though. http://www.ticalc.org/archives/news/articles/7/78/78717.html

I think they reached 1371 or 1381, or something...

That's terrible!!!! I think they need WAY more staff...

Also, I've written 7 reviews and none of them showed up.
