I came upon this story on Tom's Hardware. Source code can be found here. I thought some people here could be interested.

Games I've played so far haven't been really exciting, but holy balls, look at this!! Haven't laughed out loud that much for months! And iSketch was fun too, sometimes the spelling makes it hard though.

Head here and grab the svn version linked on that page. It should sync fine and not crash on that version.
Thanks a bunch!

Could you please remind me what version of Snes9x you are using? I can get the run to play but somehow using turbo to speed things up a little from time to time freezes the emulator for me. Anyway, I'm glad to see things are progressing so nicely, good work!!

If I remember correctly, Fitch just appears in your castle at some point, and talking to him makes him join you automatically.

Super Demo World: The Legend Continues (there are actually TASes of this hack on TASVideos) The Legend of Zelda: Parallel Worlds Both are very hard, but awesome as well.

You have to use either of those tags: [ color=#DEE3E7] (for the posts on darker background) or [ color=#EFEFEF] (for the other posts). Just make sure to remove the extra space before 'color' and add the closing tags.

Bumpin' time! Just a few days ago came out Exit Fate, by the same guy who made the awesomeness that is Last Scenario. I haven't played it yet but even if it's just half as good as Last Scenario, it's goona end up in my personal favorites...

I have no TAS knowledge at all, but I was watching your WIPs and wondering... When getting the Titan's mitt, you smash that thing with the hammer that's the closest to you, then get the treasure. Could it possibly be a little faster if you smash the one just below (to which you can get by walking diagonally) and get the treasure then? Because once you've smashed the middle one, I believe you had to walk down, then left a little... Yeah, I'm probably seeing things but you know, if I'm wrong, at least I'll have learned something... :)

I would find it so incredibly funny if the game were beaten faster with a lone hero XD
Agreed! Well, after seeing how far Ortega went alone, I'd understand the hero if he didn't want "friends"! :)

And to think some of these chapters took me dozens of turns in a "real" game... Wow! Insane luck manipulation! Congratulations on this run!

Obsessed with the game or with the machine gun? :) Well, the machine gun makes you fly, which is kinda cool, and the game's gameplay is probably what makes people like it that much. Although the game's many secrets may have something to do with it. Did you get the spur, bubbler and nemesis? Have you seen all three endings? It's pretty difficult to make it to the 'best' ending, but it's all worth it.

Spoiler (highlight to see): Nah, actually, you just get a unique item called "Sign of eternity", and that's it... When you move your cursor over it in your inventory, it says something like "Mark of a true hero". I haven't noticed any message or event other than this...

Phew, I'm finally done with this game... I stopped working on my hex solver to progress faster and I think I did well as I found the later hex games to be easier. I also beat Alexander (I don't remember fighting such a hard boss in other old-school RPGs!). However, when I faced the extra challenge, I tried to imagine how many capsules I'd have to steal and how many new games + I'd have to start. I concluded that I might beat it in ~20 years, so I sped things up a little by cheating...! I usually don't but I don't want to spend 20% of my life playing a game, no matter how good it is! ...and THAT was a good game!! If the author comes up with another game, I'll move aside anything I'll be playing by then to play it. Best things in life are free... Last Scenario and Doukutsu Monogatari are two very good examples of this!

I'm not posting much in this thread, but I'd just like to say that this run interests me a lot, so, thanks! :)

OK guys, I'm done programming the game itself, and I'd like some input (more precisely, I'd like some testers to make sure there's no horrible bug :)) I'm aware that the interface is rather ugly for now, and that the AI thing isn't programmed yet. Basically, it's just the game, except that you control both players. I've only entered a few different tiles but that should be enough to begin with. Try it out here. Every comment is welcome! :) Thanks!
