Terrance and Phillip (Build 32) (A2600 Game)

Do you remember the two farting guys “Terrance & Phillip” from South Park? Now those two guys have their very own computergame on the Atari 2600 platform.

Release notes from atari2600land:

Got rid of the in-game music. I figured nobody was liking it anyway, and it was taking up variables which I needed. Changed screen #35 and added screen #37. I also changed the way you jump. Now when you let go of the fire button mid-jump, you go back down instead of doing the whole jump.

textReader v1.0 (iPhone Application)

This application allows you to read large Text (.txt,.text), Palm Doc (.pdb), Mobipocket (.pdb,.prc,.mobi), Plucker (.pdb), HTML (.htm,.html), and Fiction Book (.fb2) files quickly and efficiently on the iPhone/Touch. This application doesn’t have the fancy formatting of ruBooks or Books.app, but it can quickly load and display large text files that currently cause Books.app or other UI Text View/Web View based apps problems. If you want to load books quickly and read text, this may be the app for you.

Changes:

* Now supports (non-DRM) eReader/Peanut Press PDB files
* Now supports Rich Text RTF files
* Better formatting for Text, HTML, Mobipocket, FB2, Plucker, and Palm Doc files
* Optionally display background files from the /Applications/textReader.app/images directory when reading text
* Optionally allows use of pinch/stretch gestures to shrink/zoom text
* Better management of cache files Add option to force creation of a cache file when opening. You can always reopen a cache file even when you change the encoding settings because they are stored as Unicode.
* Improved indentation and formatting code

Note: Books.app http://code.google.com/p/iphoneebooks/ and ruBooks http://colel.info/rubooks/ provide a formatted display of text and images. If you are willing to break up your book into smaller chapters they may also be options.

EMU-LMAO (misc)

Most of the older emulation and homebrew followers might remember EMU-LMAO. The owner points out mistakes or odd behaviors of more or less known webmasters and news-posters of related scene pages, and adds his serious to sarcastic comments.

I’ve read the older news of the past months and it was quite interesting. To answer one question for EMU-LMAO – Indeed I need to be in bad condition before the other PDRoms staff members get active. You should be happy about that anyway, otherwise “birthday greetings” might drop out of the main news too fast ๐Ÿ˜€

Thanks to GameCop for the marvellous hint, as I did not know EMU-LMAO reopened his doors again since already quite a few months.
