An hot dog... with ketchup. Eaten at the school's cafè.

Boy, there is lots of good food there. However, I usually prefer not to eat there for some reason...

(Snip)

The only "notable" thing is that the title bar says "Plants vs. Zombies 1.2.0.1065 DEBUG"

For reference, the final GOTY version number is 1.2.0.1073

I just extracted the contents of my game and it looks like there's a lot more unused stuff other than this.

I found what I think is MJ Zombie's head still in the game...


I only mentioned those two as it's not normal to find unrelated screenshots like that.

I don't know if the original version has some extra unused graphics... I may need to check...

BTW that's already in the wiki . (it says the models for Zombie Jackson were not removed in the GOTY edition, but it says that in the regional differences section)

Not really a personal project, but it's probably the closest thing I've ever did remotely similar to it.

Some screenshots from the first final level:





I've been working on this thing for a while.

Still, I should stop being lazy and finally redraw the graphics (i.e. everything). Most of them were drawn before I've set any real standard (2010),
and it shows.

BTW the game is Speedy Eggbert 2

The sun finally returned here, but the high umidity didn't. Good.

Actually it's getting quite cloudy and only now the temperature is starting to go down.
Just a few days before you could say it's summer. Now, not so much.

Finally got a "new" standalone. YES!

Might spend some time trying to get some floppies so I can install first DOS, then Wfw 3.11.

I have a somewhat big collection of old software. I'll get to see how much shit I can put there without breaking anything.

In the first Speedy Eggbert, every demo level is built off a long tech level. This tech level has a somewhat different layout compared to the demo levels. This can be seen on the level editor from missions 200 to 207 (xmission needed).

Example:

This is how the demo level (Mission 200) normally ends:



This is how it looks like in the other demo levels (here it's Mission 202):



This is the same spot as mission 200, but this time it's out of view.
----------
The demo levels in the second game look like they use exact copies of the in-game levels, but that's not true.

There are some differences in the level layout there (the demo doesn't last long enough to see them).

For example, the tech level is almost exactly the same, except that the long shortcut from the first game is still present here.

This is how it looks in the demo level (Mission 300):


This is how it looks in the actual playable level (Mission 113):




----------------
Random stuff down here:

The second game has leftover references to the "Dreams" tileset in the executable.

Button00.blp has still the dreams icon.

In the HUB world of the second game, the URL spells "WWW.BLUPI.COM".

There is a TEMP.BLP in the IMAGE08 folder. Is this used?

They changed our horrible college DEAN.

He pratically never did anything, and allowed some things that should not be told.

A classic... Super Mario World.

Managed to get the 96 exits. I still remember how I had to rush through the final level - and I finished it with mere 3 seconds left in the timer.

In reality, it wasn't too bad, but I'm still used to the Wario Land games and controls (ie. absolute 0 momentum, istant turn etc...)

Now it's time to torture myself with some stupid hard SMW hacks... maybe...

Wow, this description makes my normal internet connection look like the best thing ever made.

Anyway, I just hope when I'll move to the University the connection will get better, but there would be only one small problem.
Said university is still in Italy, so I'll have to expect the usual, if not worse internet connection.

Also, now that I think of it, the modem under XP always said the download speed was 100 Mb/s (and after a couple of hours 10 Mb/s).

100 Mb/s. Here, In Italy. HA HA HA

Sometimes on the news pop up people saying there will be laws to get into the standard of the rest of the UE. This never happened. The connection speed was like this when I first bought my modem (2009), and it never ever changed.

Copied the Bubble Bobble 2/Symphony Cheat file to its prototype version.
Obviously none of the cheats work, but the region select does work.

What happens if you change it to US or EU?

Nothing, except this:



BUBBLE BOBBLE DASH

(somewhat related, there's an unused sound of a male voice saying "Bubble Symphony". Sound Code 5F)

In the EU setting this would be the only difference.
In the US setting there's also this unchangeable option in the Configuration, replacing the COIN-B settings.

Man, I didn't have enough free time in these days...

And in what remained of my free time I was trying to experiment with an "old" standalone.
I could install Win1.03/2.03/3.0/3.11/95 without problems and coexisting. Then I messed up multiple times by installing 98.

I don't want to remember how many times I had to run freaking scandisk, like every time I shut down some invalid directories/files and all sorts of other problems appeared on the C: Drive. (BTW 98 was installed on E:\WIN98)

Let's not get over what happened after restoring Win95...

256 color mode is not handled quite well by Windows 7 (or my graphics card).

This is what the background is supposed to look like.

Nah... here's the real deal:



I should probably reorganize my desktop too. To put it simply, I'm too lazy.

I guess the closest thing I have to a complete collection at all is the Metroid series. I need NEStroid, Fusion, Hunters and Pinball to complete the set. I have NEStroid on my Wii, but everyone knows that the original carts are the best.

If I ever do get around to collecting, I'm quite certain I'd start by grabbing the remaining Nintendo consoles I'm missing.

Uh, you pratically said everything I would have said there, so I don't have much else to say, except I would first collect the remaining pieces of the Wario Land series (at this moment I'm just missing WL2 and umm.. this game). Other than that, I would have no problems whatsoever...

...having a small house with not much space left would be a serious problem?

I hate replying in a short period of time in a thread like this, but...

... hoo boy! In 2 hours the final episode of the sixth season of Kitchen Nightmares US will air. Ha Ha Ha

I can't miss this (it will be hard though - I have a dancing course which ends near when the show starts)

Let's see if they'll butcher the original dialogue...

EDIT:

Well, they didn't.

Ha, something like this would be just impossible in my town, or in the big area all around it. Among other things, there are bandwagons of old people here (which is somewhat common in Italy and it's quite a problem), and I'm not even exaggerating.
It's also very quiet, apart from the occasional music concerts in summer (and said old people are not very happy of this ).

I live far away from something even remotely similar to a hipster city, so I really can't know what it's like to live in one.

Oh well. Things sure are different in other countries...

You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier to maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

You are recommended to use CSS to control line wrapping.
Use "white-space: nowrap" to inhibit wrapping in place
of inserting <NOBR>...</NOBR> into the markup.
