The bandwidth aside...

Whatever that means.



(let's take turns doing lines now. next post can have seven syls, then the next can have five, and so on.)

LOLOL
OMG LMAO
WTF!!! J/K

Colin Mochrie's house
is only a giant box
but that's fine with him

I am mistaken
Lovecraft, Gothic, whatever.
Still sounds self absorbed

It is truly sad
to see japan's Haiku used
for goth poetry

There are some great games in production, and I'd be happy to betatest something. I haven't done any betatesting yet, unless you count Zak2.
I got a new microphone, and my Audigy card has some FX I can apply to my voice (for example, I just finished a song sung by "Arnold Schwarzenegger" with my voice pitched down a couple notes.) I haven't done any voice work yet, but I'd like to start.
And, to an extent, I can always make a couple of midis, but I'm don't think I have enough time to do a full score for a game (other than for Snake, that is.) I've provided midis for Snake's Monkey Wrench, X0Z's Waldo, and the MIDI30 pack.

Those darn Japanese
Three syllables? That's just great.
Two would've work fine!




Hi-ee-koo? Huh-eye-koo?

The kids see DG
They bombard him with snowballs
He slips on mouse poop

Zenful as it is
Haiku is no more than prose
With senseless format

On the other hand
I cannot freely write prose
Without senseless form

Be that as it may
Some people express themselves
With or without sense

Nevertheless
Expression is the best tool
With sense on your side


Despite all of this
I want to burst from my shell
And break the laws of form

This haiku thingy
Has gotten out of control
I have a monky

yep... acwin.exe is useless. Why's IT there?

Yes.... Inferno good....

Another thing I found hilarious was

Spoiler

In the dream sequence, when you poison the gunshot victim. His "death" was just surprising, and funny.

I felt that, since it's the finale and all, it could've been a bit more epic. The intro was great, of course, but the game itself should've jumped the tracks at some point and descended into pure insanity, the plot should've disintegrated and the sparse morals and laws of physics the game had should've been forgotten. That would've been a more fitting swan song for Robert, in my opinion.
But it was still a lovely game. I can't wait for Inferno.

The intro was probably the funniest part. The dream, on the other hand, was rather annoying, especially the look descriptions (hope that's not spoiling anything.) It was great though, not as funny as RR2, but still damn funny.
If you ever do Robert Redford 4 (please) I suggest keeping the game fast moving, not dwelling on any location for too long.

(By the way, after the intro finishes (or if I just click Skip Intro) AGS starts but crashes instantly. I had to run game.exe manually.)

Well, I finished it. Twas hilarious, but ended way too soon.

Making a seven-
teen syllable sentance and
splitting it's cheating.

What is more graceful?
How about seperate lines?
No random splits here.

Speaking of splitting,
It's time for my ballet class.
I must be off. Ciao.







Oh, just one more thing...
Haiku is Japan's finest
(cartoon pr0n aside)

I'm also stuck a bit later on...

Spoiler

In the dream sequence. I have the loaded gun, the poison, the tweezers, and the health potion. The guard wants food, but I can't pick up any.

I am bored by this...
I invent a new format.
I call it "Fahkyu"

It starts with a ten syllable sentence.
The next line's one syllable shorter.
And so on until you reach 1.
It's longer than a haiku.
Ergo, more expressive.
Unless you're stalling.
To reach the end.
Almost there...
Ready...!
There.

I had a strange dream
I was exreting blue smoke
Figure that out, Freud

Once upon a time
Someone wrote a few haikus
Then he soiled himself

--------------------------

I am like a tree
When the lumberjack stops by
I cannot stay erect

--------------------------

I do not like beer
Spare me that conniving phoam
Carbonated piss

--------------------------

Sometimes fake acounts
(Captain Planet and Roger)
Make the forums fun

Others aren't as fun
like RPG Creator
and that CJ guy

--------------------------

Clowns are horrible
I met a clown at the fair
He exposed himself

I was traumitized
He claims it was a balloon
I know what I saw

Mother called the cops
We violently beat the clown
Someone filmed it all

Seven weeks later
There was an immense trial
Mom and I were jailed

Seven years later
We were finally released
But that clown walks free
