As you can see from that video I could use a buck or two to help pay the bills so you can donate if you would like on the sidebar to the right or I will personally croon you a ridiculous tune or make you a custom video if you go to my Fiverr site. Thanks to all who have given so far.

The Most Important Video

This is it.  The greatest video ever made by human hands. The greatest editing/clip choice I’ve ever seen. I have to step up my game.

Rom Check Fail

Rom Check Fail is a game that mashes up random elements of other games to create a hyper kinetic WarioWare style experience.  The goal in each level is the same: destroy all enemies onscreen.  But, the level structure, music, enemies, and your character itself is changed each time.  It does help to have a working knowledge of classic games so you can mentally switch from controlling Mario to Pac Man to the car from Spy Hunter on the fly.

Dreamlines

Dreamlines is a kind of morphing, living, picture jacker-upper. It takes images from Google image search and does live post processing on them so that they shift and change into semi-coherent, scratchy, half awake versions of themselves. It’s nice in a screensavery kind of way, especially if you have some sufficiently dreamy music to listen to. Here are a few Disney-themed screenshots of the program mid-change.
