Armadillo Run

2007-01-25 18:08:02.000494+01 by Dan Lyke 2 comments

Next time I care about computer games, Armadillo Run looks cool. Don't anticipate caring about computer games any time in the near future, though, too many things in my first life to want to spend more time in front of a screen.

I recently downloaded Nexuiz to do a little stress relief, check out the state of Linux gaming, and run around and blow things up, etc.. It's nothing special in that it's yet another Quake deathmatch clone. It is special in that it runs very well in 1440x900 on my laptop under Ubuntu. While I'm just barely able to frag 1st level bots, that's really all I want to do sometimes..

Had two teenagers visiting us recently, and besides building a potato cannon and melting some glass into interesting shapes, we pulled out a spring BB gun that the rat boys[Wiki] gave me to take pot-shots at the raccoons, and I was reminded that any time I want to shoot at something, all I've got to do is dig out some goggles and heavy clothes and go knock on a neighbor's door and invite Austin, Drew or Owen (if he's home from college that weekend) out for a little airsoft action.
