New TSA Game
Surprised to see my post from a year ago is still on the front page! Anyways, I'm making a sequel to my game called Joe's Adventure 2: Slime Warriors. Just finished the title screen, game beta thingy coming soon.
Everyone at my school seems to ooh and ahh over ZZT's text interface. And I even got my user privileges on the school computer revoked because they said I was "hacking the computer." I even got ZZT to run on a bunch of different systems through various methods like Xbox original, Wii, iPhone, Android, Windows Mobile, PSP, and plenty of others. Oh, and I scared the crap out of people while cranking the volume and starting Banana Quest :D.

Thanks!Surlent wrote:You sir are awesome.
Anyways, I'm also liberally using it in my classes to create games with questions [pretty simple, go through the wrong door, get shot 3 or 4 times], and every time you answer a question right, you get to fight a pile of ruffians or bears or such. It's simple, but it works.

They're complete retards when it comes to computers. At first, they refused to turn the computers off or the screensavers on. The windows logo was burnt into the screen. When I started turning off the computers, it finally hit them. Anyways, a few years later, in 2005, they upgraded their computers from windows 98 (!) to windows xp(wtf?!). They are all amazed at my dell running osx86. So impressed, i guess, that they said i was good enough on my own and banned me from all of the computers except one and they say it was because i tampered with system files when all i did was change the screensaver. At this point, i was all "man, fuck that." I went on my own, with my hp tc4200, which amazes them to no end.

Weeeee don't use none of that lee-nux here!Surlent wrote:Almost certainly. And I bet $10 and a pop tart that I could do a better job as admin myself. At least I know how to upgrade a damn computer and know that changing the screensaver doesn't make you an uberleet haxor. That and my ever-increasing Linux background.
Anyways, I had an old laptop running Fedora Core, and I stopped bringing it because A. I spent 10mins every day telling people what Linux was, and B. I didn't know what DOSBox was at the time, and OpenOffice was mangling our pre-typed Word forms pretty bad. Did I mention that now they locked out the WiFi so only THEIR computers can connect? And we used to just hook up an AirPort to the ethernet jack in the wall? Moving backwards?
Oh, and the head lackey came in today and swapped motherboard in a computer. When asked why, he said the one had a bad hard drive. I refrained from asking, well why didn't you just MOVE THE FREAKING HARD DRIVE THEN?
And also, I saw the head techy in the hall, stood near him for a few seconds, and overheard him say the Administrator password. MUHUHUHUHUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Let the trolling commence. Let it commence hard. Like Aplsos.
And I've never tried Fedora outside of a quick LiveUSB experiment, though it looked alright and has a kickass Plymouth screen. I'm sticking with Ubuntu because it was they that introduced me to Linux, and I'm interested in seeing their curious design ideas down the road. I'm currently running 10.10, called Maverick Meerkat. I rather like it, though I've also messed around with a good half a dozen others, usually as LiveCDs/USBs or through my Virtualbox. Good times. I was recently so lazy that I did a virtual XP install so I could avoid having to reboot to 7 to use Internet Explorer for a proprietary website called MyITLab that I have to use for one of my classes.

You know, on Linux, just install Wine and then you can install Internet Explorer? Just a thought... Anyways, I always thought Ubuntu was the noob's linux, but maybe the others are needlessly cryptic. Oh well. Anyways, I was really bored in study hall today, so I said "hey everyone, over here! I just found the greatest video game music of all time! It's better than Halo, Mario, or anything else out there! Ready to hear it?" And then blasted the Banana Quest theme. And of course, about 10 people said how'd you do that? I said ZZT, and then copied it to a bunch of people's flash drives. I got an email from one of my friends, and we had a massive argument about whether KevEdit or the normal ZZT Editor was better.Surlent wrote:Let the trolling commence. Let it commence hard.
