Yesterday at Costco I saw an HP touch-screen computer, and I’ve seen plenty alright, but this one blew my mind away, because it had World of Goo loaded in the green “compromise-issues” goo-balls level (ok… “Ivy Towers” level…).
I had to stop and touch that. (”touch that” …you get it? no?)
Veredict is: Boy! AWESOME.
Sure, controls are awkward at first, because, it’s hard to understand how to play without a mouse… but after a few touches and swipes with your finger, you start playing with so much comfort and ease, it looks like if you are leading an orchestra!
It’s definitely a very nice and refreshing way to play World of Goo again.
But brings up this question:
Touchscreen games, are they better native or ported?
Yesterday I accidentally tore off the clot (also “thrombus”… wow, didn’t know that one…) from a wound in my right foot… I pulled off my sock without noticing the clot had sticked to the sock… It hurt like BILLY OH!!! And I went berserker with a wall for a minute or so until the pain lessened enough for me to react at the blood that was emerging from the wound and trickling down my foot… unto the floor…
Anyways… After that, the new clot formed up quicker and a lot less bulkier than the last one… And I’ll be back in shape for Soccer Today. The sun is coming out from the clouds also, so that’s another point for SOCCER TODAY.
My attempt at fixing some verses for the song I was so excited about yesterday… PHAIL… I mean, I’m not that inspired yet, I need more vocabulary, or… I don’t know… but here’s a tip for all ya songmaker wannabe’s: Finish your great song the day or the moment you bake the first good idea, because the next day or the next moment it could be goner… I still have the chorus but… I’m not a fan of songs where you repeat the same lines for ever, definitely gonna put a pin on this project and save it for when I have what I lack of momentum. ANOTHER POINT FOR SOCCER TODAY!
Have I ever told you I’m a fast runner?
Like… very… very… fast indeed?
Like I BEAT USSAIN BOLT fast?
Like MY NICKNAME IS: FLASH fast?
No? Never?
Hmm…
ANOTHER POINT FOR SOCCER TODAY!!!
P.S. My wound was product of a slide-tackle while playing soccer on Sunday.
Sorry about that “I’m fast” rant… I lost it…
I’m fast indeed, I’m nicknamed Flash indeed, but I’m not that fast to beat Bolt…
…YET.
Yesterday, just around bed-time, I came up with a song with some verses and a chorus, but when I actually thought of writing it down I kinda forgot the verses… Anyways I did remember the chorus, and verses can be made up any day, any how… right?
It’s a pretty cool song in my own humble opinion, and I can’t wait to finish it, and maybe publish it on Youtube or something…
Besides that, yesterday was boring… like… dead boring… Bad weather, no park… Fried GPU, no games… sigh.
Today I plan on getting head on with my schoolwork, so that next week is a bit easier on me; I also plan to continue my reading of “Dos Años de Vacaciones” by Jules Verne… (Spanish title to emphasize it’s all in spanish… ¬.¬ …) Which I had interrupted due to my trip to Cd. Madero, where I found my book ”Cien Años de Soledad” by Gabriel García Márquez, and I chose to read it again… it’s odd, I felt the same need to know what happens next, and the same bitter thoughts went through my head, just as if I hadn’t read it ever before… But I’m halfway through the story… and it’s just sooo sad for me, I want to drop it now, I don’t wan’t the whole emotional trip right now…
All spanish, spanish, spanish… I do get tired of reading so much spanish, but I have a backup plan, in case I get too tired, I plan to read Treasure Island!
No other plans for today… with this grey clouds above me… *sigh*.
GLOOMY…
I just deleted 28 comments full of unintelligible gibberish… and lots & lots of links, and when I say lots, I mean LOTS (estimated number of links per spam post: 100)
At least it’s something to do around here…
