Weapon: A fine magical sword for the true swordsman. It's also magical, but since nobody really knows what sort of magic, they're keeping themselves a bit distant, in case it explodes or something. Pet: A swaybacked old nag. It likes carrots and sugar lumps and long walks on the beach. Armour: A truly kingly set of solid metal armour. If you can tear yourself away from the mirror, it might even see combat.

The nice gentlemen at Penny Arcade were nice enough to introduce me to;

It cost me most of an evening.

I accept no responsibility for any impact it may have on your lives.

Pet: A chicken. The CHICKEN OF SHAME! Defenders Guild: Protectors of the weak and helpless. Usually for a price.

Yet another fun little distraction.

Odd to see a PC game borrowing from a touch screen playstyle, but it still works.

A purple glowing shadow-wolf. It's as elusive as smoke, and can walk through things. That's cool and all, but you can't pick up its poop. Pet: A forest wolf. Just your average moon-howling, forest padding, chicken eating feral woofer.
Pet: A green glowing ferocious wolf spirit. The way it walks through the door when it wants 'walkies' is disconcerting. Pet: A large black wolf. He's cool, and he knows it. Pet: A cackling, mangy hyena. You've got to laugh, don't you? Pet: A large red hunting velociraptor. It's basically an iguana that learned to stand upright and eat people.

Love this game. Well worth the effort. Up to 1950 after about 35 minutes... no idea if that's good or not, but having fun all the same.

Rare Item: A collection of the works of Gandalf The Grey, signed by the mage himself. In crayon. Pet: A bovine of average proportions. It goes moo at one end, and milk comes out the other. Nothing to it. Rare Item: Saurons Helm. Taken when he was struck down by the combined armies of Elf and Man. Turned upside down, it would make a great collander. Rare Item: The One Ring. The Ring of Power. The owner of this item thinks they are COMPLETELY invisible... nobody has the heart to say otherwise. Chaos Guild: Anarchy and Chaos are the order of business. Weapon: The epic battle axe is without precedent. It is sharp, swings true, and leaves no enemy standing. It just takes two people to carry the damn thing.

Psyg', do you still have that steampunk blimp image you cobbled together for me? I like it, but seem to have lost my copies in a hard drive incident.

That'll teach me for trying to hotlink. Try http://www.elfwood.com/~maddox/SteamPunk-Zepellin.3004660.html

... though if we're getting technical, I much prefer this one: http://www.elfwood.com/~maddox/Subway-3c-version-2.3004651.html

Having said that, I've completed Steambirds, including the bonus levels. Kinda wish there was a bit more to this one, as I was really enjoying it when I realised I'd completely run out of levels. Smile

Yer, that was it.

Some of your best work, I've always thought.

I really like the one in the first post in this thread too. I just wish that the smokestacks weren't quite so big. I mean... we get the point... but that totally ruins the aerodynamics.

And while I really think the Zep/Carrier turned out well... I personally think that my finest work is this:

Pet: A green glowing ferocious wolf spirit. The way it walks through the door when it wants 'walkies' is disconcerting. Weapon: The tool of the silent assassin. This is the model with the compass on the top, and spool of dental floss hidden in the grip. Collectable: The holder of this certificate is hereby declared mostly human. On balance. If you squint. Rare Item: From the forests of Lothlorien. The necklace of Galadriel. She's probably still cursing letting those thieving halflings in the place. Quaffers Guild: Dedicated to imbibing various alcoholic beverages since the First Age. Rogues Guild: Haven of the ne'er do well and the skulker.

(Hobbit notes there is a significant difference between listening to your music compositions on a computer with decent speakers/soundcard and listening to them on the laptop.)

Nicely done, Psyg'. Smile
