Hey there!
I'm Matt.C, and I made the ridiculous Flash game you see above. Enjoy! If you've got any questions about the game, feel free to ask 'em down here in the comments. (In image form, of course.) If any of you are (un)lucky to have seen the original Magenta Kong arcade cabinet back in the early eighties, you'll probably remember the hideously garish banner art on the front and sides, and if you were especially lucky, you'll have been around when the screen used to smoke (and the smell) after it had been on for more than a few hours. The Magenta Kong cabinet came with a pretty useless manual, if you got it at all (and they didn't give you the Chinese one by accident). Here's the 'SCENARIO' pages from the English MK manual, if they're any help to you. (Along with some complimentary scrawls from my (much) younger self.) Addendum (2008-09-02 22:55): Watch out, dialup users! The manual photograph is quite large: ~900k. |

Sorry folks - no MFD Extra from me today - no way am I going do anything that might steal Matt C.'s spotlight (I know you're all disappointed)
Great effort and a great result. My hat goes off to you, sir! |

Think of all the things you could have done with the time you wasted on that.

LOL! This is awesome! :D
Hoe did you make the sounds? |

How in the world did you manage to create a browser-specific Flash applet? I tried this in IE, Safari, Opera, and a couple of Gecko-based browsers, and it consistently fails to work in anything other than Internet Explorer.
In the other browsers, it ignores any keypresses other than P (Pause) and 3 (see below). Even when running under IE, it seems to have some issues; in particular, pressing 3 during gameplay causes a "Name Registration" screen to come up superimposed over the game, with there being no obvious way to get rid of it. Another weirdness: I notice that the cursor keys work in addition to the WASD keys, but they also scroll the browser page at the same time. |
