After years of lacking a decent webpage, I finally got one! And I couldn’t resist the urge to plug it here: [http://www.geocities.com/kinkajou02/](http://www.geocities.com/kinkajou02/) That is the “official” webpage for a little DOS game I’m making called Guggoids (It’s yet another “Asteroids” clone…except I like mine better. \>=]). It’s a good site, but the hit count is pathetic. I’m lucky if I get 1 hit a day, because it is not in any search engine directory (to my knowledge) and not linked to any other site (yet). So I decided to plug it here, on MPSIMS. Yes, it is Geocities. ☹ I’m kind of ashamed to admit I chose such a stupid provider, but at least I can honestly say that I wrote the HTML myself. 🙂 If you do visit the site, I’d REALLY appreciate if people gave me feedback on the webpage and/or the game, and tell me what’s good/bad/what needs improvement. How’s that for pointless? ---

KJ sez: **If you do visit the site, I’d REALLY appreciate if people gave me feedback on the webpage and/or the game, and tell me what’s good/bad/what needs improvement.** The little side thingie on the page is kinda close to the other part thingie. That annoys me for some reason. The font is kinda big too, but I think we can live with that. And for christ’s sake, get it off geocities! \ [stas.net](http://stas.net) offers free webspace with no banners or popups or anything. ---

I’ll keep all those things in mind. I might also make the side bar some fancy javascript mouseover image for no reason. Thanks. Now, did anybody actually play the game? =\ ---

\*_Now, did anybody actually play the game? =\*_ I did but um… well… don’t laugh… I’m too stupid to figure out what I’m actually supposed to do. I just kinda cruised around for a while. ---

Heh. There’s not much you can do at the moment. The radar on the top-left shows you where you are and where the guggoids are in relation to you, so just go to the guggoids and shoot them a bunch of times (press space). If you press shift, you do the hyperdrive teleport (which I believe is “hyperspace” in the original, but I’m not sure.) I really overdid the special effects for the hyperdrive thing, though. 😃 BTW, no, the game is not done yet.
