Pretty close to done with this one. I added an extra difficulty mode, changed up the interface and graphics, and tweaked the mechanics.

Ripple Dot Zero
My future favorite game. Beautiful colorful spritework. Yamaha-style Sega Genesis synths. It's the real Rocket Knight sequel as far as I'm concerned.

Shnabubula - Playing Super Mario World While Taking Mushrooms
Holy cow, what a tour de force. This is an incredible Super Mario World Medley/Jam Session injected with healthy dose of soul and humor by Shnabubula using the original Super Nintendo soundfonts. The final few minutes are pretty mind blowing. Take ten minutes out of your time and listen to this insane thing.

Mike the Cat's Legal Defense Fund: Demo 2

I finally made some more levels for Mike the Cat's Legal Defense Fund.
You can download the demo HERE. It's about 12 MB.
It includes three new challenge levels, an overhauled engine and some tweaks to the original levels. My microphone is broken, so I unfortunately wasn't able to record new dialogue for the CEO character. If you want to level select, you can press "d" on the title screen. I think I might whip out a couple of more CBS Storybreak remixes for special levels. Now that I have a better engine and have basically made it from the ground up, I'm going to try to push myself to work on a level or so a week. It's good to have the muse back.

This Cat Is Horseshit
A videogame I'm developing for Something Awful's Development Challenge IV. The theme is Deals with the Devil. The game is called This Cat Is Horseshit. It's the Garbage Pail to the Cabbage Patch of Petz games. You have to pet sit for Satan's unruly nightmare cat. Working now on AI for the cat and balancing the resource management. This engine test is being manually controlled to show off the early level design. Here is a demo of the theme song.

The Jasper Jackalope OST
Jasper Jackalope is a theoretical platformer created by the theoretical Olivo Instant Grits Company. In every commerical Jasper has to protect his grits from the evil Cecil Coyote. The game itself is an homage to Sonic the Hedgehog. I decided to make this soundtrack before I made the actual game. The songs are fun cut and paste chiptune samples with some beatboxing laid over the top and I realy like the sound. I offered some of these loops for Dave Kelly to use on Something Awful's Flash Tub a while back and it was pretty cool when he actually did! Here is the first draft of most of the soundtrack to Jasper Jackalope. I still probably need a continue song and maybe a game over.
