    Thanks for the lil segment bout my game there. It’s actually my own lack of skill holding up Eagle’s Nest as there are some aspects of the project I just ain’t too happy with and can’t fix it myself yet, hence the smaller, much simpler project to practice various things on first.

    Haha, I know, I’ve read the thread on RR. I just like chivvying you along whenever possible. :)

    Oh man, what a lineup!

  • Wolverine

    heh, ok. Anyways like I said on RR then, I’m taking a break from things like websites and all that for a lil bit. Christmas is being a tad stressful again this year. Things to sort out. Y’all have a good one! Seeya in the new year.

  • Too Scared to use Real Name

    I can’t understand you, The Arsecast Host. :(

    You talk smooth as butter.

  • http://www.arsecast.com The Arsecast Host

    Are you from the UK? If not I could understand your inability to understand me.

    But even then I do talk too fast. Sadly I can’t remedy it even if I try. :(

  • Man with apparently excellent hearing

    I don’t have any trouble understanding the Arsecast host, and I’m not from the UK. I mean, definitely there’s some sort of British accent but it’s not *that* strong and he doesn’t talk *that* fast. I think he enunciates quite clearly, actually.

  • NO!

    Yes.

  • Madgarden

    Takes a few arsecasts to get the hang of ‘im, but by jingo I think I can follow along lately.

    By the way, thanks for the, er… nice… preview of my game. ;)

  • Santa

    Merry christmas!

    Yay, thanks for reviewing The Wonderful Wizard of Oz – it’s so nice to be noticed (actually I was just the programmer not the producer). You’ll really love my latest game, Holiday Bonus (all my own work by golly), check it out, it’s full of Christmas cheese :-)

    Oh, and by the way, I can understand you very easily, you sound posh.

  • http://www.arsecast.com The Arsecast Host

    Dude, you gotta’ stop recycling that damn game and make something new! I mean it was bad enough when Retro 64 knocked out Waterbugs after Cosmobots, but FOUR FRICKIN’ VERSIONS?!

    I love you The Arsecast Host.

    You make me smile :-)

  • Gronka Lonka

    arse cast offers you plenty of boredom.
    lovely gay -_-

  • Ilia Chentsov

    Madgarden, where have you been? I remember you from Pixelation forums, where you showcased SAKFU, did you manage to finish it?
    Oh, and which of the mentioned games is yours?

  • Man with apparently excellent hearing

    Ilia Chentsov: Madgarden is Paul Pridham, so the mentioned game is Saucelifter. As far as I know SAKFU is still vapor, although the demo *was* so very delicious.

  • http://www.arsecast.com The Arsecast Host

    Yeah, I IM’d Paul to get him to reply but in his absense I’ll mention that I chat to him regularly and he does indeed want to do SAKFU still, but like me (and a lot of devs) he gets distracted very easily. In my case I ended up doing a podcast, in his case: Saucerlifter.

  • NOT dessgeega

    The Arsecast Host is pretty good.

    He’d be better if he didn’t have an accent, didn’t review games and didn’t have a podcast tho.

    _(hate)_

  • Madgarden

    Yes, Saucelifter is my game, and SAKFU is next. Really. No… really! ;)

  • http://www.arsecast.com The Arsecast Host

    Aw, Dessgeega, I know that some people are gonna’ hate what I do, but that’s true of everyone. Someone, somewhere will take exception to your work and think it’s awful. Just the way things are.

  • http://www.greyaliengames.com Jake Bikett

    Arsecast Host: Yeah I know, but it’s all part of a masterplan, don’t worry…

  • http://www.arsecast.com The Arsecast Host

    Haha, I can’t barely plan two meals ahead, Jake, so I hope someone else is working this masterplan…

    My mum’d probably be pretty good at it, she remembers birthdays and *everything*.

  • NOT dessgeega

    The Arsecast Host would be better if he was a woman.

  • http://www.arsecast.com The Arsecast Host

    Hell yes! I could feel my tits then! It’d probably scupper my output efficiency, though…

  • NOT dessgeega

    ^_-

  • haowan

    heh, the puppet master wins this round. Exposed… but too late! :D

  • http://www.greyaliengames.com Jake Bikett

    Arsecast Host: Yeah I don’t plan meals either (gotta have some spontaneity) but I’m pretty good at masterplans ;-) Plus I only feel my girlfriend’s tits after completing some important tasks – luckily for me I have lots of important tasks each day…oh and we both work at home :-D

  • http://www.arsecast.com The Arsecast Host

    I can see why you knock out the same game time and time again if your reward is a nice grope. ;)

  • Derek

    Jake Bikett: Pics, please. And I’m talking about your gf’s tits and not your games. ;)
