    My quest to hoard all the Internet Points continues. Suck it, ant;
    those points are mine! ;-) ;-)

    Don't get it. Some games like this, they look terrible
    but you see that it was an effort of love despite the
    obvious lack of talent. This lacks that passion AND
    lacks the talent. It won't cost you any money to play...
    but that's the only good thing to say about it. And even
    that is a double-edged sword because that low-price
    will artificially inflate the download numbers far
    more than this game deserves. Just avoid it altogether.


    You know, this game is so terrible, I don't think I deserve those
    Internet Points. I mean, I'm taking them anyway... but I'll feel a
    little bit guilty about it.

    We're going to need to deduct 4.7 months of points for this
    monstrosity, it looks like games I used to make back when I was
    fucking around with MC68000 Assembly.

    This looks about as much fun as getting audited by the IRS.

    Shame on you. Shame I say.

    It means I spared him 2 digit precision by rounding up.
