also I seem to have remembered today A. how pointers work and B. that QuakeC has them.

I think I've *finally* fixed a persistent bug in my Q1 slidemove code. I can now wallrun up stairs without stopping or getting caught.

Been trying to fix that for at least 6 months.

Suddenly wanted to hear this again tonight. I have a repress of it on an otherwise electro record (Bionic Breaks compiled by Boris Dlugosch). Really lovely disco track.

#streaming Deus Ex: Invisible War (2003, PC) this afternoon at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. Today Alex explores lower (and upper) Seattle.

#streaming Deus Ex: Invisible War (2003, PC) today at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. First session, starting the game from the beginning.

I'm starting a playthrough of the Func Map Jam 6 map pack for Quake today over at https://twitch.tv/andreaen.

I'm running it with the mod I've been writing as a test of sorts. So there will be some funky movement.

and that's Deus Ex finished. Was a good time.

I really enjoyed the gameplay, the surprising number of ways the player can solve different situations.

The story... not really my cup of tea. I like a lot of the elements it was playing with but not so much in that particular combination.

Still: very fun to play. Easy to get in a groove with it. I look forward to playing it again with a different approach, different restrictions and skills.

#streaming Deus Ex (2000, PC) this afternoon at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. Part 8; JC enters Area 51. (I'll finish the game today hopefully).

Toot edited to add: unfortunately there's an audio error in this transmission, a bad cable (or patchbay) dropped the left channel of game sound. I've switched to local audio capture ("desktop audio") for future broadcasts.

#streaming Deus Ex (2000, PC) this morning at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. Part 7: JC travels to California to rescue Gary Savage's daughter.

#streaming Deus Ex (2000, PC) this morning at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. Part 5; JC makes his way from New York to Paris.

(Still sick so, again, this might be a short broadcast.)

#streaming Deus Ex (2000, PC) tonight at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. Part 4; JC returns to New York from Hong Kong.

(I've been pretty sick so this might be a short broadcast.)

#streaming Deus Ex (2000) tonight at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. Part 3; JC has arrived in Hong Kong and sets out to explore Wan Chai Market.

(I'm pretty bad at this game so far; maybe I'll wise up today.)

#streaming Deus Ex (2000) again today at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. JC's brother Paul has just defected to the NSF and we're about to get yelled at by Manderley.

Toot edited to add: unfortunately in the middle of the broadcast the game crashed and afterwards wasn't captured for ~20 minutes. I have identified the problem and it won't be an issue in the future (have to make sure to capture the game window after clicking 'play' in the launcher).
