Too bad the only choices are corpse white, or sunburned red for Caucasian skin.

From Bit Trip Run! on iOS. The trees are more obvious, but the spike balls have faces in a Keen way that's different than the Mario way of putting eyes on everything. http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd137/guynietoren/IMG_0121_zpskxv4t4hy.png http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd137/guynietoren/IM...

I remember reading that a 4th spacial dimension doesn't exist because several current math equations would fail to work if all the dimensions weren't accounted for. Sorry I'm having trouble finding the article again. But it pretty much means that time is a concept and not a plane of existence. Altho...

That's correct. It's also been a heavy influenced my EGA artwork.

I have no trouble using Commander Genius. But that's on a Galaxy Tab 2.

Edit:
Forgot to add that my bluetooth keyboard works well with it also.

Currently I'm trying to work my Raspberry Pi to run a dos emulator using RetroPi. My only missing component right now is a SD card reader. Before I was using my tablet's SD card slot to transfer files over. But RetroPi's download is an image file, and my image loader won't detect the card through my...

There MUST be a link to Kirby's Dreamland somewhere... Wasn't a bad article that I saw that from. Basically saying Wart's back story needs to be explored. Myself I wouldn't mind a sequel to SMB 2 with a new art style. Article? http://www.cracked.com/blog/the-5-most-wasted-opportunities-in-video-gam...

Just like with every year, still the same, people drinking and taking drugs! Believe me it is all New Year's Eve Stands for! I wasn't so excited. The barrier between 2014 and 2015 is just man made anyway. Just the calendar has another birthday of sorts. But it is another day closer to Nintendo rele...

Blah. I tried starting on the ground tiles, but realized the ones I had already made are 5 tiles wide(blissfully ignoring their height), when it should be 2 to 4 wide to line up. Unless I'm looking at it wrong. Hah. I was hoping to not have to do it over again, as they're a pain to line up so they t...

Just the thought makes me drool. I can support higher res tiles and also plan to do that, but for now only more colors. Those tiles look impressive I really like them. If you happen to finish them, so the two tilemaps used in Keen 4 are complete I would support them in Commander Genius and you can p...

Sprite upscaling tutorial

This is a tutorial of my method of redrawing Keen sprites in 4 times the resolution. I made this since several people wanted to know how it was done. Here's the thread containing my Keen 4 art. http://pckf.rigeltechnical.com/viewtopic.php?t=1635 I'm not sure at this point if I will continue to do mo...

I haven't messed with .NET in about 10 years... back in college. I wasn't too happy with how stable the thing was on our school computers, but used it to compile C code. Maybe it was an issue compiling VHDL code, I can't remember. Probly would be easier to remember if I had a job using it by now, bu...

Yes it's still EGA, but could be easier to deal with just the colors instead of upping the resolution at the same time.
