I just read that this may come to fruition, in the Fortean Times... Hmmm

(And a little Piggie told me!)

Stranger things have happened.
I'm very happy with what I wrote last night so at least there's some progress.

I've just had a look through the level titles, crazy stuff. I think I'll borrow 'Horace the bouncer' for one level meself.
By the way, I was planning to buy Psion3 so I can play the HITMW but can't seem to be able to track the game anywhere. What to do with P3 without it? Soks, did you say you bought the actual game for it?

Sokurah · **Reply #3 on:** November 21, 2009, 12:03:36 am

Yeah, I bought the actual game...and I bought the Psion just to play it.

Horace is part of the 'Games Deluxe" pack. There's one for sale here - this one is only being shipped to the UK though, but they're always for sale when I check (for fun) so I'm sure you'll find one.

Hey, thanks, at least I know that it's part of that compilation thingy. Can't find it on ebay yet but will be on the lookout as it might pop up someplace.

If you buy a Psion3 Lobo, I can upload the files (and more) for transfer to one, if you have a pc with a serial port?

Sokurah · **Reply #6 on:** March 08, 2010, 10:13:26 pm

Did someone mention Horace?....

flash · **Reply #7 on:** March 08, 2010, 10:19:00 pm

Yeah, sorry!

I remember somebody was once.... ZZZZZzzzz... er... whatever!

LOBO, I may have a spare copy on card if I can find it, please pm your address, mobile, hat size, and golf handicap!

If I can find it I will send you one!

I also did a pack of games for Yellow Computing GMBH which sold over 20,000 units and have NEVER found a copy of, if anyone does I would love it (though I have the source to most of them)

I sort of found it

Listed as games pack 5 (all mine) and I so wish I could find the original.

Hold on, don't pm Mobile, I tend to call at the wrong time and wake the household.

(sorry HK)

Lobo · **Reply #9 on:** March 09, 2010, 07:43:55 pm

Ok, send if you find, no mobile for you though (I do the same mistakes calling people at 4AM).

LOL!!!

but... Golf handicap?

flash · **Reply #11 on:** March 09, 2010, 09:03:41 pm

Lobo,

I have got a Psion 3a and the gamespack for you and will send it all as soon as I can get to the post office.

All I ask is a full review of both games, a picture of the Mona Lisa in blood, 3 Dodo beaks, a Griffin's feather, and 4 blades of grass from Antartica. Don't let me down...

Grrrrrr..

Lobo · **Reply #12 on:** March 09, 2010, 09:32:09 pm

No Golf handicaps, I play baseball.. with bats.
Thanks for the pack, a piece of history is gonna land into my paws. I cannot give you the requested items but I'll look in the fridge, could be something equivalently tasty in there.

flash · **Reply #13 on:** March 09, 2010, 10:45:06 pm

Hmm...

Ok, from the fridge, Devilled Hamster eggs or, Rashers of streaky rapeseed oil.

Lobo · **Reply #14 on:** March 09, 2010, 11:13:22 pm

None of them, I don't eat eggs, from devil nor chicken and only oil is...mm olive methinks.
You can get a burrito, the best on this side of Rio Grande (tacos and nachos per request included).

Nutters.

flash · **Reply #16 on:** March 12, 2010, 09:56:34 pm

Lobo,

The gamepack arrived today, as soon as the Psion3a arrives I will send it to you (both).

One little thing, have you got a serial port to connect the psion? I only say as I have a golf game (and some others) that I would like you to see, but these need to be installed on the psion.

Lobo · **Reply #17 on:** March 12, 2010, 10:01:06 pm

Wxcwllwnt! (meaning excellent!)!

Yes I do have a serial so let's see what gives! Very excited, gonna let you know when it arrives!
Woo!

flash · **Reply #18 on:** March 12, 2010, 10:08:25 pm

<chuckle>

I will let you know as soon as it is posted..

In the mean time, anyone with wonderful searching skills?
There is a games pack I released by Yellow Computing containing 4 games,
Asylum - A breakout/arkanoid game with load of powerups.
Balders - One of my fave Psion games based on Boulderdash.
Blitz - A blitz clone with lots of options.
Wormz - A snake game with a TON of levels.

I think they were the 4 games.

I know I have it somewhere and will have to find it! It is slightly saddening that is sold over 10,000 units (12,300 odd) and I can hardly find a mention online (and Yellow Computing GMBH is no more either)

Lobo · **Reply #19 on:** March 12, 2010, 10:19:41 pm

No luck here, searching for Balders Psion gives back 100000 Baldurs Gate results.

Can't even imagine what would happen if I searched for 'Asylum' (brrr...shudders).

I did that...and it lead me back here. Who knew.

Shame..

I will find my original (somewhere) and post the bins and some scans for fun (at some stage), hopefully someone else will propigate it?

That's what I was afraid of.

Ok,

The Psion and Gamepack have arrived - I am just waiting for a link lead to arrive and then I will send it out

Enjoy!

Lobo · **Reply #27 on:** March 18, 2010, 09:04:44 pm

Exclllnnt! Will let you know when it arrives. Unless post office deemed the object as suspicious and hammer it for inspection!

flash · **Reply #28 on:** March 18, 2010, 11:12:44 pm

Hmmm...

The package is in the shape of a Cross and draped in blood-soaked rags, but.. in your climes, perhaps it may not arrive because it is a little too nondescript?

If I get a letter with a free pen in it, the post office will not deliver. But... the bouncy walls here are great, soft, and oh! so white!

Wonderful!

Lobo · **Reply #29 on:** March 19, 2010, 01:08:57 am

No worries, Igor will make sure it arrives safe!
