Classic Fireman joins in

by IRA

Yes, finally a real update. Ok, he’s not a whole new character, but I’m impressed I managed to put this together given my little free time. I can’t wait for December to enjoy some real free time.

Newcomer: Classic Fireman

Classic Fireman plays just as Fireman in Incoming Storm, except he has a buster. I find fun to play with him because he’s so small that many enemy projectiles miss him. Use that at your advantage, I suppose.

Also, I’ve got plenty of new levels thanks to S.C.O.R.P.I.O.N. Just copy and paste the code on Bass Abyss’ Custom Level screen to play them. They are a challenge.

I expect to code a new character for the next update. I have already plotted the gameplay so I hope to have a smooth time implementing it.

IRAGINATION is another year old, somewhere this month. I can’t remember how many years, neither the exact date, but I know it happened. Thanks for the support!

I got my Spanish keyboard

by IRA

Spanish (Traditional Sort)

I typed that just to remember it. The PC came with a regular English keyboard. At first I didn’t bother the lack of ñ or tilde, I have memorized their locations so I could type easily.But the brackets, equals, colons, and all the punctuation, for some reason I have to watch the keyboard to find them. I was even eager to learn to code with an English keyboard. The problem is that in my job I use a Spanish keyboard. So, after 8 hours of coding in my job, it was a nightmare to return to home and try to code with an English keyboard. I really tried.

So today I asked my boss, “do you have a Spanish keyboard to spare?”

Well, he gave me one. Then it was the issue to know what Spanish keyboard he was giving me. I used to remember this stuff first hand, Traditional Sort, International Sort, but not at that moment.

Anyway, traditional sort was just the one I used in Ecuador, and luckily this keyboard has the same layout. It has two slight modifications, a half sized Backspace key, and the right bracket key is up there taking that space. Once I get used to that, I expect to start some serious coding.

I barely remember half of what I wrote in my previous post, but most likely anything that I offered there didn’t come to fruition. The reason? I’ve been really busy. No, seriously. Ridiculously and insanely busy like never before.

I can be busy for several weeks, but three months in a row is too much. It’s been years since the last time I didn’t update in three months, and even then, at least I returned with some relevant update, but this time I bring nothing, nada, zero. You get the idea. Yet, I felt the urge to at least write this and say hello. I mean, it’s not like I’ve abandoned this site or something.
