In Loving Memory of Nelly Mae Eva Rogers Jackson

My grandmother has passed away today.  She was a sweet and loving woman, and she'll be truly missed.  She loved my grandfather so much, and was so lost after he passed away.  There's comfort in the thought that she'll be able to be with her husband again. Nelly Mae Eva Rogers Jackson February 28, 1920 - May 7, 2007

I Am Now Helping With The ScummVM Wiki

The ScummVM Wiki is a great source of information for the adventure game suite, ScummVM, and the games that are supported by it.  The ScummVM team has graciously accepted my offer to help keep that wiki up to date.

I have been a big fan of ScummVM since it started back in 2002, and I've always wanted to help out. I have submitted a couple of patches, but I'm not skilled enough in programming to help out in any big way.  I really love to research and write though, so this is right up my alley.

Thanks for doing what you do, ScummVM Team, and I hope that I can help alleviate some of the work on the documentation front so that you can keep doing what you do best. :)

In Loving Memory of Richard Allen Jackson

My grandfather passed away today.  He was suffering from Alzheimer's for several years, which is a terrible disease.  At least now he'll finally find the peace the disease has taken from him for almost a decade.  He was a kind man and will be deeply missed. Richard Allen Jackson June 2, 1920 - June 4, 2005

FreeSCI Stable Branch Daily Build

Update, February 14, 2009: FreeSCI has been merged with ScummVM.

FreeSCI's Dreamcast daily builds page has been updated again this week, with a build of the stable branch of FreeSCI. Here's what's new:

• src/engine/kfile.c: Use HAVE_*_H macro's for unistd.h and dirent.h includes.

Thanks to lyonhrt for the news.

My Sites Are On Hiatus

I just wrapped up working at Wal-Mart for the Christmas season, and my rent on my apartment is going up.  So, I have taken this time to elect not to become a full time employee, and I have turned in my apartment key so I can move in to be a full time caretaker of my grandparents.  My grandfather has Alzheimer's, which is a debilitating disease, so this will take up most of my time.

Thanks for your understanding, and thanks for following my sites all these years.

The Adventures of Gus and Rob G|C Edition

I have finished a demo for a Dreamcast version of my adventure game that also has demos available for Windows and Neo Geo Pocket, The Adventures of Gus and Rob.

It was created for the Games Convention in Germany, and I have given it to Max Scharl to be shown at the Dreamcast Scene booth.  I'm happy to have this occasion to give something back to Dreamcast-Scene, as they have been the biggest supporter of the Dreamcast since Sega dropped support for the system in every territory other than Japan last year.

My Development Site Has A New Home

I've decided to move my devsite to ConsoleVision, as I'm developing for consoles, so that only makes sense. :)

I'm going to pick up NGPC dev again, so stay tuned. ^_^

The adventure of Gus and Rob page can be found here.

Pengo doesn't have a page yet, but it will.
