Dig Dug’d Robots From Japan
I was getting bored so I put together my new TF2 profile artwork that’s sort of a mix of this game, Dig Dug and Wall-E:
Ah yes, it’s a beautiful pleasure being greeting by those two Disney-Pixar robots as my samurai and geisha duo in Japan… along with a derpy Pooka and Samurai Dig Dug riding on top of a Fygar. ๐
Having Fun With Dig Dug Of The GBA Type
I decided to come back to playing some Dig Dug, but this time it’s from Namco Museum for the Game Boy Advance! Here’s a screenshot of what the gameplay looks like:
The objective in this arcade game is to clear out all of the Pookas and Fygars in order to advance to the next round by simply blowing them up using Dig Dug’s air pump.
You can also drop rocks on them to score big points. For example:
I also managed to complete rounds 2 through 7 without losing a single life, so now I’m at round 8.
I should probably take a break from that game for right now until the next time I come back to playing it. But yeah, this is literally one of my favorite Namco arcade games. ๐
Current Illustrator Mood: Namco High School Invasion
There’s nothing I can say for tonight, so here’s my latest GMod screenshot which was image-traced from Adobe Illustrator:
Playing around a bit of Namco Museum 64
I was checking out Namco Museum 64 on Der Project 64 emulator. It’s a Nintendo 64 game where you can play 6 arcade games starting with Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, Galaxian, Galaga, Dig Dug and Pole Position.
The reason why I snagged that to add to my collection of N64 games is because I remember playing Namco Museum Volumes 1 and 3 on the original Playstation back in the old days. They’re a lot of fun! ๐
Famicom Mini Fun Time!
I’ve been experimenting on Famicom Mini games on my Visual Boy Advance emulator, and here are a few screenshots of Famicom Mini games that have been tested successfully:
My future plans are to play more Famicom games; such as Ice Climbers, Clu Clu Land and Super Mario Bros.
Adobe Illustratification Artwork Roundup
Guess what I’ve been doing in Adobe Illustrator lately?
I just thought I’d practice some more drawing on my Wacom tablet while tracing images of various game sprites, and I will doing more of Illustrator so that I can learn new things on there. ๐
Enjoy my latest GMod Block Art
I have been making some block art in GMod lately. Here’s what I’ve been working earlier this evening:
It’s an 8-bit flower based on the one from the 1982 Namco arcade game Dig Dug.
Checking out some more Game Boy roms
I found some more Game Boy roms that I remembered playing original arcade versions of them from awhile back:
Plus I grabbed another Game Boy rom that’s really fun to play:
Yep, I had a really fun time murdering enemies and creating words. ๐
Playing around some Dig Dug for DOS
Last year I went to My Abandonware and found a DOS game called Dig Dug, so I decided to give this a try:
You’ll play as the dude dressed in white clothing, and you’re digging underground to destroy all Pookas (the red round monsters that wear yellow goggles) and Fygars (the green dragons that breathe fire) by blowing them up with your air pump or crushing them with large rocks:
I’d say this is a really fun DOS Game. I was thinking about playing other Namco DOS games like Pac-Man and Galaxian, but I’m gonna have to wait on that for another time. ๐
Mah Jongg Madness
I decided to play some Mah Jongg today with the Namco tile set that I made. Here’s a picture of it:
I made them because they’re my favorite retro arcade games. ๐
