10. "All You Get From Love Is A Love Song" by the Carpenters. Yes, I like them. They delve into depths of gloom that Goths can't approach because they have to be so fashion-conscious and hip about it. This song may very well be the most deceptively gloomy number encountered, which isn't surprising, when you realize what sad, pitiable, damaged ( Read more... )

Nah, he's a good tiny yellow kitten. He's not psychotic and inbred like the rest of our cats, who are really only good for fun fur . . .

And, yes, it's a great game. The voice acting and animation in Visco's games are way better than most of the others. And I fixed that bug, anyway, and now it plays windowed (as opposed to hogging my whole 1280X1024 screen), as does every other game. Must've played the Mr. Do series for hours between calls last night . . .

Hhhhhhhmmmm . . . Mr. Do fanfic, I bet nobody's ever done one, at least in English. . .

LOL!

I'm glad you fixed the bug! I wish I was as technologically competent. *feels bad* What is Mr. Do? *That*'s something I've never heard of. Enlighten me?

< a href = "http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?letter=M&game_id=8767"> Link to the Killer List of Videogames Mr. Do entry. Great series of maze-type games. The last 3 actually have no home conversions at all for some reason.

Also known as a character on grade-school safety posters in the States. AFAIK, those pre-dated the games and Universal actually licensed the character . . .

They're a Japanese company . . . American kitschy stuff has always had a following over there. I suspect they had the game idea, saw the character, and lightbulbs went off . . .

Sadly, Universal's designers, who also created Lady Bug (a game on my Top 10 list from last week), are not credited and there's no way to ask them. They rank up there with Sid Meier and Eugene Jarvis as my programming idols, though . . .

Ahhh, of course. Most likely the case. That's interesting though.
