link bitch...but. i guess i don't really mind, so
it's okay.

I appreciate your help in making the internet more
convenient to navigate for all those people out there that
don't want to go to that site and listen to the track
anyway. *thumbs up*

so. is this "norfzorf" a product of your own genius? the
track wasn't bad...infactitwasratherGOOOOD...the ending
could use some touching up, however. a bit...hmm. well, it
basically just seemed like the middle of the song and you
faded it out or something.

I didn't make the chulk one, but yes the other two are a
product of my genius. Have you played shadowgate? It
was pretty fun in a really minimal way... slightly annoying
when solving a puzzle involves clicking on a super small
obscure area of one of many screens though.

i like a good puzzler - especially head-to-head battle
puzzlers like Tetris Attack and Super Puzzle Fighter II.
Those games are incredibly addictive....

I've yet to touch Shadowgate though...

I played through Shadowgate a long time ago on NES. I liked
it, but I was stuck for a large amout of time because I
failed to realize that a bucket (the well one) needed to be
opened before you could see in it. After that it went
smoothly.

The song does sound a lot like Shadowgate music.

I couldn't finish it because, after you get past the feel of
entering an otherworldly fantasy and realize that it's just
a piece of computer software, you realize the best strategy
is to sequentially try every single available option (ie.
use torch on wall, use torch on door, use torch on water etc
etc... eventually one of the options is the right one) and
it's just not fun thinking of it that way. That's a reason
why more complex games like doom2 are fun because their
chaotic nature makes them harder to solve the problems
orderly and systematically.

I made a new melody. I like this one a lot. The build up
sucks but it's just to show how it, uh built up. I like the
idea of making a simple melody, then spreading it out in
time and making the simplicity intricate. That's what I did
here:

I remember playing two player tetris when I used to have a
friend. That was awesome (on gameboy) I need to make an
intelligent cyborg so I can do that again. Actually it
shouldn't be as hard as making a real human, because unlike
a real human this cyborg's intelligence and other resources
would be created for tetris ONLY. It would have no use for
legs or an abdomen even, just thumbs to press the buttons...
well I guess I'd give it facial expressions so it can annoy
me when it's winning by laughing at me and get pissed off
when I get a tetris and fill it's screen up with blocks.

i knew the chulk track wasn't yours, you big silly. you must
not remember the thread you made promoting the track. that's
where i was introduced to the greatness that is chulk.

anyways...i quite enjoy the track. it's cutie. what're you
using to make these? just some random nintendo sample, i
guess. i'd like to get nanoloop for my gameboy, but
it's a bit expensive...so i'll hafta wait. heh.
