So far no answer. Apparently you do need to register to vote because when I got to the site today, it knew who I was and wouldn't let me vote again

if that picture is really you, Vern ?!

Jeepers, Vern. You're just a puppy!

Funny, it's the same picture that comes with the game. I guess no one clicks on About screens anymore?

Anyway, yeah, that picture is a few years old, and I look particularly young in it for some reason. I have more recent pictures, but none of them are very good -- all pretty bad quality, so I have to go with the old one whenever I'm posting something.

Here's one I took just now, with PhotoBooth, and the built in camera in my iMac. Not the greatest quality, but I don't look quite as young as in the other picture.

[Excuse the messy room. And no, this is not an advertisement for CheesIts.]

How do the tags work? MM has two tags: "Indy", and one that says "Montezuma Retro Dungeon Dark Castle 2D Platforme". That doesn't seem right, because it's all one tag (and "platformer" is spelled wrong). Shouldn't it be a bunch of seperate tags?

Thanks for the tip. It's fixed now.

Now you need to add "adventure" and "casual" to the tags, so people looking at Within a Deep Forest or Cave Story will get referred over to MM. Those two games would be very good company.

It was not at all meant to be. Like aquaMat said - makes your achievements all that more impressive.

No no, nothing offensive.

I'm probably older than I look? (I'm 28) People generally think I'm a bit younger than I am when they meet me in person. Although I was 22 when I started work on Midnight Mansion. (Same time I started college.)
