Language Jewels

Did a little scripting in Ruby, and it is a really neat language (with a huge amount of nifty bindings), although embedding it is next to impossible. I also think that my Ruby-“style” leaves a lot to be desired, I need a Ruby-style-guide or something to see how things are really supposed to be done.

Games are getting easier

Pretty much finished “Mario Kart: Double Dash” today together with Alex (i.e. mirror-mode Star-Cup and All-Star Tour). Good fun, but not as challenging as the good old “Super Mario Kart”. I don’t know whether I can be asked to complete the All-Star Tour for 50cc and 100cc, though… 😉

*edit:* Sent support query, fixed it promptly. And that for a free service. Ta!
