Mini Link Dump at Week’s End Posted on 9/19/2008 by Augie De Blieck Jr. The source code for Donkey Kong is now available. One of the original coders even comments on it in the thread at the link. Here’s some sample comments: ;;HISTORY: ;; ;;Nov ’82 – IDS, initial coding ;; ;;Dec ’82 – more coding, hair pulling, general cruftiness ;; ;;Jan ’83 – schedule screaming, rampant insanity, accusations ;; ;;Feb ’83 – semi-winnage, accompanied by cries of anguish and threats;; ;;Mar ’83 – Lucifer announces a cooling trend And here’s a quote from that aforementioned developer: “I do remember that [Donkey Kong Jr.] was started in FORTH, and was an ego-driven disaster until that nonsense stopped.” Somehow, that just shattered a bunch of naive childhood memories. Here’s another good reason the internet was created: so someone else could apply every Photoshop filter to one photo to see what it gives you. Your Flash Game for the Day: Split Words. Given a playing board filled with word parts, match up two or three parts to form answers in the board’s theme. It’s timed. It’s nerve-wracking .And it gets very hard very fast.
