Smooth sailing. Bet you thought the traffic was going to be pretty bad throught his Austin rain, right? It was Cool Runnings all the way down. So I get home and try to get into this Jedi Knight II game that The General and Poyfather have been hustling in on me. The concept is every Star Wars fan's moist dream--you create your own Jedi Knight and go into various game settings to kick ass, take names and shoot the nefarious electro-bolts from your fingertips. Barring any unforseen problems, such as "everybody else takes your name, kicks YOUR ass and shoots those nefarious electro-bolts at you" it should be fun, right? Ah heck no, my scrawny Padawan butt was getting Dark Side molested every corner I took. I swear my Light Saber was a cheap Taiwanese knock-off.

This is a screenshot of a game i'm currently developing, called "GREEK BEACH PARTY W/SAMUEL AND UNCLE FOSTER". It currently uses DirectX 8.0 and all the latest Direct3D extensions (as you can tell by the screenshots). It will support network play for up to 16 people and is highly addictive. Think Pokeman for adults.

Song of the Day:
1.) Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - What ever happened to my rock and roll?.
