This is a photo of a Banksia plant (I didn’t really check for more specific details) from the Canberra Botanic Gardens… from two weeks ago now.
Rush
You may (or may not) have noticed that I haven’t really mentioned the past three of Nitrome’s games. Other than the blatant Mario plagiarism (in fact, this newest one is [...]

Via Earthshots.
Also this amazing picture of a tiger, which is quite spectacular.
Checking out a new game entitled Love is also worthwhile - it’s an excellent game (the fact that I completed all three challenges on my second go has nothing to do with this) and has a foundation built upon a solid and enjoyable concept. [...]

I won’t lie. I got to level 9 (out of 15) of Sky Serpents before I regrettably needed to restart a level. Though, surprisingly, that level was more enjoyable than all of the levels before it, as it posed strategic difficulty of sorts unlike most of the ones before it, and even a lot of [...]

After a certain while, the study-break-eat pattern gets a bit dreary. But never the less, I’ve found another (still non-Facebook/Kongregate/MSN) way of entertaining myself: trawling through Nitrome games to see which ones I never completed.
On the list today: BulletHead. Took maybe 45 mins, partially in between my two 3-hour practice exams for the day, and [...]

Does’t take long. Fun game. Good difficulty curve, very enjoyable (and dare I say it, addictive, though it’s a short game so it’s a good way to fill in a break or two).
You play this bird character, and you fly. It’s fun. Controls take a while to get the hang of; while simple to move, [...]

Whenever I mention a game, it’s either because it’s really pleased me, or it’s really disappointed me. Here’s a bit of both.
Don’t get me wrong; I enjoy Nitrome games. But when their newest game is entitled Ribbit, and involves you controlling a very apt frog-rabbit, it gets a bit painful to continue playing. Which is [...]

In between increasingly large work periods I find chill time. So, I do anything but work. Like… play games.
Fault Line
A new Nitrome game which can be found here. Puzzle, with a decent learning curve. Some levels take quite a while to figure out (/endlessly experiment with) which is fun. Not overly hard in the end, [...]

Chisel is a game. A decently enjoyable game, I guess. But a game none the less. So in between studying frantically for exams and going insane over studying and thus doing nothing, I found a very short amount of time to complete it (like… 40 minutes maybe, while talking to friends).
Unfortunately, upon completion I found [...]

Tiny Castle
This is an exciting game. One of the recent Nitrome ones which I haven’t disliked enough to play (sure, I wasn’t going to complete it originally and a friend suggested that I did… but who could blame me?). It’s kind of slow, but actually a decent game, so I’d recommend playing it.
… that is, [...]

IOGraphica
While traversing the deep dark realms of the internet, my friend linked me to a rather interesting artistic photo. Turns out there’s this program - completely pointless, but interesting nonetheless - called IOGraph, which can track mouse movements for any amount of time and give you a picture of it.
So, me being my usual self, [...]
