Yeah, so I got an interesting piece of fanart for Christmas this year.  My friend doesn't do art well at all, so he wrote me a video game.  Starring Me.  Woo!  It's called Wampo.  If you've ever played Pengo, you'll get a kick out of this.   I'll put official instructions and a download page on my site soon. But this is a sneak preview for those in the forum.  =^_^=
Have fun.  And don't forget to read the readme file.

Click HERE to download Wampo!
NYA!  =^_^=

NYA!  I've played it too!  Lots and lots of fun for bored squirrels!

By the way, Tatsu, where did you get the background music from?  Or did you make it yourself?  I like it a lot!  It's really, um, swanky! (nothing else describes it better '<img'> )
   Now,
       let's go play, together...

The background music in the game is all remixes of the song "Popcorn", which is a very very famous piece for MOD composers. This song originated in the mid 70's by a group called "Hot Buttered" and is probably the first song ever to meet the genre of Techno.

Since then, dozens and dozens of remixes have been made. The 1982 game Pengo by Sega uses the same music (which is the game Wampo is based off of). I had to modify some of the tunes to better match the level that you're on (yes, I do music as well), but it was mostly easy to find remixed versions of the songs that fit the theme already!

So there's yer quality random trivia for the day! Everyone's beaten the arcade mode of this game by now, right?? I want high scores!

Not too shabby, you must have come close.
Your scores to beat are:

341830 on adventure mode

223650 on survival.

I think I actually got more points than that on survival, but there was so much stuff going on that the game couldn't handle it and crashed... I did something that may have fixed it, but I haven't been able to get that high of a score since.

Lover your avatar, Tatsu! You create it?

How about taking a walk over to the "Furry Greeting" section and introduce yourself?

Actually, it was the Wampus who made it for me as per request for a parody of the MK logo. It came out great, so I decided to turn it into the little animated coin thing, which is easy to do with today's modern software!

Well, I did sorta introduce myself on the general board, but that ended up turning into a programming lesson... so sure, why not!

Great job, Katty!

Was the software you used, Tatsu, a free downloader? I think the spinning button thing is cool!

Lessee... it was a long time ago. I believe the name of the software was XARA3D. If I remember correctly, it was one of those deals where you can use the program for free X number of times until they totally cripple it on you.

It's actually a 3d text program but you can also create buttons and the like. Once I made my own custom font in the shape of some characters from my games and textured them with the original graphic so I could make a "2.5D" game, where they're 2d images, but they can rotate and such. Sorta like parappa, just with a bit more depth to them. Fun stuff!

It looks like you are still using it though!  '<img'>

I'll have to check into it some time. I don't have anything I would put into a spinning button at the moment but one never knows when they will use it!  '<img'>

Thank you for the info!
