Today, I have the motivation of a slug

















That took entirely too long to do.

Hello.

Welcome to the journal of Laz. In this journal you will... wait... we all know who I am, what this is, and what you'll find here. Nevermind.

I sent the source that I have so far of F.A.R.T. over to Ravuya and he was able to port it to Mac OSX and Linux in less than 5 minutes. Total. Now, how do ya like THEM apples?!?!

No new screenshot yet, tomorrow maybe. I dunno. Maybe I just won't give you any screenshots. Do you deserve them? What have you done to deserve a new screenshot? huh? HUH?! YOU'RE GROUNDED! GO TO YOUR ROOM!!!

See that PRopane Injector logo below in the FART screenshot? I made that. It's pretty, ain't it? Here, I'll show you again.



I might modify it just a tad to put the "njector" text closer to the 'i' ... we'll see how it looks tomorrow. But for now, I'm going to bed. Good night. GO BACK TO YOUR ROOM! I SAID YOU'RE GROUNDED! FINE, MAKE IT TWO WEEKS AND NO ALLOWANCE FOR YOU! YOU CAN JUST THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU'VE DONE!

New project for the week. I'm trying out Ravuya's PRopane Injector wrapper dealy thingy so I thought I'd see how usable it is for an idiot such as myself.

I'm making a shitty top-down shooter similar to that of Crimsonland (I love that game, can't you tell?!) but with crappy graphics, crappy gameplay, and grappy crap.

The name of it, F.A.R.T. Now, I chose this name because me and my friend were playing F.E.A.R. and joking about the name. "Lets take FEAR and make an anagram about it! First ... Encounter ... Assault ... Recon ....... YEAH!" ... heh. So, F.A.R.T. stands for First Assault Recon Team. It'll be a small spoof of the F.E.A.R. game (I wonder how many more periods I can stuff in this paragraph...).

Hell yeah, baby.

Lazteroids 2 -- FINALLY GOT FRUSTUM CULLING WORKING! WOOHOO! I's show you a screenshot, but it's nothing fancy.

Blocky Man Goes to Space -- No new news.

Real Life (tm) -- I bought the "Start Something" CD by a band called Lost Prophets. Fucking ownage. I still miss Damian, but he went potty in the toilet from what I hear. WOOHOO! (you'll understand when you have a kid of your own)

My apologies, didn't mean to bump my journal up. This was a rant that should not have been.

So this weekend I went and saw the DOOM movie. All I can say is "Holy shit." I know it wasn't doom without the Hell aspect, and I went in with that presumption in my head, so it's not like I got let down during the movie. With that in mind, I was extremely pleased and I am going to watch it again. And probably again. And I will buy it on day one of it's DVD release. That movie fucking owned. Call me a fanboy if you will, and I don't care.

In other newsish type of news, here is the title screen for BMGTS...


You must click it if you want to big it


I know it's really busy, maybe it'll change when I'm done. I also have levels two and three finished. Two more to go.

A great friend of mine, Brad, is looking to give away a Sapphire Radeon 9600. Check out his journal, or this thread for details on his plan and comment there. This is a good chance for the less fortunate graphics card owners out there to get something decent, don't pass it up :)

I haven't done any work on Lazteroids 2 or on Blocky Man Goes to Space. I will work on both today. I'm still fighting with frustum culling on Lazteroids, and on BMGTS, it's just a matter of making more levels then I'll be done with it.

So I decided to have a bit of fun with Stompy's "Blocky Man" game. I'm redoing some of the graphics and making 5 new levels and calling it "Blocky Man goes to Space."

You see, as soon as Blocky Man rid the world of all the anti-blocky's, word came in that there was a new threat to the world. Alien Blocky's are threatening to blow up earth if we don't give them all of our waffles. Rather than oblige, the government has decided to send our hero to their planet and save the world, once again.

Edit: Everything aside from Blocky Man and the Exit door (soon to be changed) is art that I made, except for the background... kinda. I got the planets from http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~aarditi/solarsystem/solar-system-1024_768.JPG, but the stars and clouds and gradient were added by me.

Just wanted to take this moment to spam my new website:

If it doesn't work, it might be a DNS issue. I just recently registered it, so DNS might not have had time to ripple for everyone.

Mike wanted to see a new screenshot.

So here it is. He calls these "Spheres of Chaos." I call them, circles showing the collision bounds.

That is what I did yesterday. Nothing today due to getting home from work at 9pm with a sledgehammer headache.

No developmental news this weekend, however I do have some ultra fucking cool stuff to show you. Yesterday my best friend invited me to go to the races with him. Now, when it comes to me and drag racing (or cars in general), you don't have to ask me twice. And the deal was sweetened when he said "I'll pay for the ticket, don't worry."

We went to San Antonio Raceway because they were having a "Night of Fire." They had a two Jet Dragsters that ran the quarter mile at speeds upward of 300mph, a jet semi that ran around 250mph (1800hp!!!), and a school bus that does a wheelstand all the way down the quarter mile. Here are a few pictures, none of which I took. I regret not taking my camcorder or my digital camera. Had I know there'd be a jet semi and a wheelstanding school bus, i'd have taken them. I only knew about the jet dragsters, which I've seen a few times. Was my first time seeing a jet semi and a wheelying schoolbus. Anyway, without further ado, p1kt4rz:



Click the pictures to biggify them


I could only find a picture of the "Chicago Rush" jet dragster, couldn't find one of the "Terminator" jet dragster. But, really, once you've seen one, you know what they look like. None of these pictures capture the fucking SWEETNESS of them i nreal life. You must get to an event and see these. I don't care if you don't like cars or racing. Do. It. Now.

Also, the Orange County Choppers' (TV's American Chopper) "NAPA Auto Parts Drag Bike" was on display:

So a small number of people were having difficulty viewing the latest Lazteroids 2 screenshots, so I rehosted them and edited the post, so those of you who had trouble, please view the post below and feel free to comment

I'll look into the issue that was causing the images to not be viewable for some people.
