Thoughts on Virtual Combat

Alta Rydder is ready for action in GoreBagg’s Dragon 3D 1.08 beta version — this is totally updated and upgraded; it’s mistified and Goddlike. Let me throw a few thoughts out here about virtual combat.

First of all, every character that you as a level-designer plunks thoughtfully down into the level map is real in its own world. You’ve got to get used to that idea or you can’t really write levels. There’s more, much more. Read on…

New Super Computer

I’m just logging onto my new supercomputer for the first time. Claude installed it and got it running, and I’m in the GODD editor making a terrific and high-impacting level for you reincarnation buffs! I’ll be meeting folks in-game for reincarnation training all this week. This is an Afterlife Adventure I’ve been working on. You can download it. I’ll be personally hosting the Bardo Run on Saturday. See you there.

Reincarnation Awareness BardoMania Online Gaming

http://youtu.be/R4MlOhSJzWU

BardoMania Is Here At Last. The fulfillment of my visionary dreams so many years ago, long before computers existed. Now, at last, you can experience First-Person what I had envisioned as a training environment for you to learn how to maneuver in the Afterlife and other-worldly alternate universes.

I think I have in my hands what might be the Ultimate Immersive Death, Rebirth, Afterlife, Alternative Universes and Alien Dimensions of Otherness Experience of Your Lifetime, all for the price of a cup of coffee and a donut!!!

Here’s what I know so far:

Okay, Natasha, Here is Game Plan:

Recognize the phrase? If you watched Rocky & Bullwinkle, you’ll easily recall Boris Badenov’s voice. Here, in fact, IS the game plan for the development of GODD Games:

Diablo III is finally here, after more than two decades in development. Notably, the servers are down again today, this time for five hour or more, while Blizzard irons out the bugs they failed to catch because they never player-tested the game until final release.

Smallest Violin in the World Playing “Hearts & Flowers”

Hearts and Flowers, a sentimental song of yesteryear (that’s a long time ago by modern standards, about the 1900s or teens. It used to be played in theatrical melodramas — American Stage Performances were sort of on a par with modern high school or grade school theater… and still are. Cats, Cats and more Cats. So what about the violin? It’s playing that sad song for anyone who can’t keep up with today’s gaming hardware and user-smartness requirements. First of all, nobody can, not even the idiots who set the standards. Secondly, nobody cares, and thirdly, hardly anyone knows what the hell I’m talking about here. Basic lesson to be learned is, stay with it to penetrate its secrets. That’s the message for this particular eveningtide, in which you can hear the town crier calling gently, “three o’clock and all is well, except for a gang of orcs and dark lords blasting through the barrier! Well, back to work I go now,  on CTF Six, an experiential experience for you in Bardo Architecture, with a touch of gaming thrills, spills and chills!

To Blizz or Not to Blizz

I say blizz away. diablo three is not horribly unpleasant to play. What you’ll have to get used to is an overabundance of extreme detail and architecture.

My old tired eyes tolerate the dark, muted screens fairly well, at least so far.  We’ll be doing safari in this for a while, so get used to it. Your controls will be more or less the same, and the layout follows the original more or less, so there isn’t much to learn. One thing that might drive you nuts is how to identify a UNID. Merely right-click on the item in your backpack and it’ll miraculously become whatever it is already.

As Ye Sew, So Shall Ye Weave

What you’re looking at here is a small part of my personal collection of sewing machines, all precision-crafted, by hand, to exact dollhouse scale specifications. The thing that makes these unusual is that as miniature as they are — none over 2″ tall — they all without exception are working sewing machines that could, if you could find hands small enough to operate them, could produce miniature fashions. Everything from needle to bobbin is there, and in the case of the back right machine, with chromed base, it’s a double-needle device, perfectly made by a Swiss watchmaker. This collection can no longer be assembled. I thought you might find it interesting, but wait…there’s more.
