Gun Of Thunder and AG iPod Exchange


Gun Of Thunder

Gun Of Thunder is a shocking platformer created for Game Jolt's Indie Game Demake Contest (July 2010).

Gun Of Thunder is a demake of Ted Lauterbach (rotten_tater)'s Thunder Gun which was entered into Game Jolt's first contest where the theme was "Shocking".

AG iPod Exchange
I had to format my laptop due to a few virus issues and when everything got back to normal, Yamipod decided that it didn't want to work for me anymore (probably due to a pesky update by Apple). This prompted me to create my own really simple program to copy the contents of my iPod back on to my laptop with names that actually make sense. It uses an external jar library to read in the ID3 tags which can be viewed here.
What a way to spend a Sunday afternoon, eh?

Blind Redux


Do you recall that Minimal Contest I mentioned at Game Jolt some time ago? If you do, you'd know it was a great success and there were some 50 or so games submitted.

Well, I've only just gotten around to playing one of the games submitted: Blind Redux by CROS (David DeCarmine).

It (honestly) had me laughing from the start, right up to the finish.
It's been around for a good 5 months now. How did I possibly miss this game?

Anyhow, it has a reference to me (that's right, me in it) so I thought I'd post it up here for note.

Slick with GameJolt Quick Play


So you've got your Slick applets working on Game Jolt, but what if your game is normally a downloadable? Game Jolt has "Quick Play" which is pretty handy considering most people don't want to download, unzip, and run a batch script to play your game.

You've tried compiling your Slick game into an executable with both launch4j and JSmooth, but neither have seemed to work. Did you ever try asking Game Jolt to run your batch script?

I did, and it didn't work.

After some reading, here is the reason why:
The Quick Play java applet which downloads and runs your game uses the method Runtime.getRuntime.exec().
Programs ran with exec() will stall if they produce more than a few lines of output.

Windows 7: Gadgets not working with UAC off.


You've disabled UAC, and your gadgets have stopped working. Coincidence, I think not!
Fixing it requires you to add a small item into to your system registry.

Windows 7: XP/Vista style "Show Desktop".


You've probably just installed Windows 7, it's working wonderfully, but you're a little frustrated that your "Show Desktop" button is now on the far right.
You're probably using a laptop touchpad, another crazy input device, or you're just too adjusted to the old button positioning. :)

Ever heard of Windows Key + D?

I've stumbled upon a method to do this using a program which you can "pin to taskbar".

Download "ShowDesktop.exe".
