yes, having another update so soon is indeed surprising. This all comes down to one simple fact, that after our undead shark motivation stratogy, things were slumping a litle due to the Agnet houseelves lack of limbs, so I put in a quick call to Cyber control and got a patented Cyber convertion unit installed.

This quickly solved the limb issue, installing a nice set of hefty metallic legs and arms on all elves (we had to chop off a few real ones, but never mind).

I was tempted to have the elve's brains also cyberized to remove all emotion, but then that would also make our other motivational and managemment techniques, ---- such as the very successful boot pluss backside stratogy, rather ineffective, so we left the cyber elves brains in even while upgrading their boddies.

Here's what the upgrades have done thus far:

Win Hh: renamed entry to homer on a harley and slightly changed description.

Wincart: Changed name to mach 1 tts as it appears in theKitchinsinc menue.

Wincas: changed name to casino.
Wincon: changed name to Concentration.

Wingolf: changed name to just Golf, slightly updated description.

Winyaht: changed name to yahtzee.
Winhang: changed name to Hangman.
Winlad: Changed name to Snakes and ladders (kitchinsinc).
Winmast: changed name to mastermind.

Winmule: changed name to Starmule as it appears in the kitchinsinc menue.

Winpoly: changed name to monopoly.
Winpong: changed name to just Pong.

Winship: changed name to Battleships.
Winspank: changed name to spanker.
Wintruck: changed name to Trucker.
Wintriv: changed name to trivia.

Majesty, heroes of ardania: updated the description with more information about the game.
Airik the cleric: page, description and links.

Removed entry for Aura.

Laser breakout: page and description.

The eternal duel: page and description.
Unseen, the alpha missions: page and description.

Hi dark,
Fantastic work again, seriously.  especially with the kitchensinc games, should make them a lot easier to tell which iswhich when skimming for example.

Hi,
Thanks for the updates. Just one thing: I don't think the link to the baseball review works.
Well, I get an error when I enter on it.

Thanks.

I've let sander know about the review business, it's possible they never got reuploaded when the site went down, and in fact I wouldn't mind having them back sinse I wwant to listen to the top speed two review myself.

it would be nice to get the section back, maybe host some other people's audio reviews too, provided of course they both demonstrate and talk about the game in the same recording.

Wow you've been busy!  That's a lot of name changing, and I agree it helps distinguish them when skimming through the list.

It was a good idea of Haidens. I was a litle worried that I wouldn't be able to change the names without completely deleting and recreating the pages, but in the end this wasn't necessary so renaming them wasn't a problem.

Hopefully we can get the audio reviews back too.

Dark, Thank you for adding Laser breakout on the database.
I tried clicking the homepage link of Laser breakout, but it didn't work. Can you fix it?

No idea haiden, only that on Jim's site, the games aren't actually listed by name, there is just the download link to the file then a description of what the file is, maybe whoever originally wrote those pages thought the file names were! the names of Jim's games.

Yukio, I got the link to your site from your profile on the forum. No idea why it wasn't working but it seems to be working now.

Glad the Laser breakout entry is helpful.

Hello Dark!
About Baseball, in the table, under platform, look what you wrote.

Audiogames has entered a new era. With blockbusters such as bk2, swamp, perilous hearts and the soon-to-come road to rage, audiogames takes a new shape. High quality sounds, multiplayer and very sufficiant AI is audiogames next step towards attention. The world is about to change so cheer with me, hurray!

Hi Dark,

I see you spelling it kitchinscinc at least in the topic. You might want to change this to "Kitchens Inc.", just to be sure. smile
