Time For Me To Get JigSawed
I was playing an old-school Windows game that I remember playing back in the Windows XP era when I was a kid. It’s called JigSawed, a jigsaw puzzle game where you need a picture file and the objective is to grab all the pieces and drag them to their home spots and solve the jigsaw puzzle. Here’s what the actual gameplay looks like:
As you can see here, this is a picture of Wall-E and Eve but it’s scrambled into puzzle pieces in shapes such as rectangles, ellipses, etc. After you completed it, a message will pop up and will let you know that you have solved the puzzle in an amount of time taken.
Now here’s what the picture of Wall-E and Eve would like if all the pieces are in their home spots:
I also made a bunch of other picture files that are 16-bit color bitmap files because JigSawed doesn’t support the ones with 256-bit color. Another thing I don’t like about this game is when you pick up a hidden piece buried in other pieces in their home spots and I keep deciding to pick one of the pieces from their home spots instead of the ones that are hidden. Jesus Dog Gone Christ, I always hated that to happen EVERY SINGLE TIME! Either way, I really enjoyed playing this fun puzzle game.
Playing Some Tetris But With Japanese Fairies
I decided to check out a Japanese Tetris-based puzzle game for the Game Boy called Chiki Chiki Tengoku, and the main objective in this game is to line up 3 or more different objects that descend onto the playing field which turn into stars while clearing the remaining others. Once the player completes a row of stars or more, the stars turn into fairies and the other remaining stars will be cleared out. Here’s a screenshot of the actual gameplay:
Another thing in this game is that the fairies can’t fly away from the playing field until the objects above them are either turned into stars or cleared from play. This game has positive abilities such as object transformers and rockets, and it also has a negative ability which is a diamond-shaped piece of brick, and if you make a row of them it takes up part of the playing field. Oh no!
Anyways, I have managed to clear levels from 1-1 to 3-4. Hooray!
Oh, and what I like about this game is there’s an in-game screensaver where fairies keep flying upwards every time a player clears a level. I love it! 😀
I’m now on level 4-2 in this game, and I think I’ll call it here for tonight. But yeah, this is a pretty fun puzzle game made from Japan. 🙂
Some Wednesday Night Sprite Sheetifications
I decided to come back to making more sprite sheets and submitting them over to the Spriters Resource website this evening. Here’s a SGB frame that I ripped the other day:
This is from a Japanese game called Nintama Rantarou GB: Eawase Challenge Puzzle. And yes, I did try out that puzzle game and it was really fun but hard to master. 😉
Now I’m at the point where I’m inching closer to 1,900 sprite sheets of the Game Boy type. Goodnight ladies and gentlemen!
Have Some Super Game Boy Frames
I’ve been ripping even more sprite sheets over to the Spriters Resource website, and here’s a sheet that got confirmed the other day along with the other three Game Boy sheets:
I also got four more of my sprite sheets approved yesterday, and I just submitted four more of them tonight. Now I’m at the point where I should cross my fingers and hope that none of my sprite sheets get rejected. Stay tuned!
I’m Der Champion Of Splitz!!!
I have decided to come back to playing Splitz for the Game Boy, and I managed to clear the last four levels and beat the game. Here are the last few famous celebrities in those levels:
After completing the third and final bonus level of the game, I took on the final level where I must assemble a puzzle picture of this female royalty:
The last level was quite challenging but I finally mastered it after losing a single life and reached the end of the game with the final score of 166,000 points. Hooray!
So yeah, I enjoyed playing this fun game but man that was intense. But what sucks about this game is that it was never released in America. Oh well, at least it was fun. 😉
More Game Boy Fun With Splitz
I’ve been playing some more Splitz on a gorgeous sunny day, and I have conquered three more levels in this game. Here are three more pictures of celebrities that I have assembled in those levels:
I even mastered the next bonus level and earned an extra life. So now I’m at the point where I’m halfway there to beating this game. 🙂
Uh-Oh! I Got The Splitz!!
I’ve been checking out Splitz for the Game Boy. It’s a remake of the 1986 computer game Split Personalities where you can push pieces horizontally or vertically with the goal being to recreate a picture which can be shown at any time by pressing the B button. Here’s a picture of the gameplay:
However; the player will lose a life if a puzzle is not completed fast enough or the bomb explodes after five seconds. Anyways, I managed to clear the first three levels including the first bonus level:
I might have to come back into playing this game because it’s really fun but extremely difficult to master. 🙂
Submittifying My Sprite Sheetifications Again
I’ve been ripping some more sprite sheets and submitting them to the Spriters Resource. Here’s a sprite sheet from the GB game called The Fidgetts:
I’d say this is an OK puzzle game to play, but it’s definitely not my kind of music to listen to.
Have Another Sprite Sheet Of Mine
And now, ladies and gentlemen. I will now show you my sprite sheet of startup screens used in Bookworm for the Game Boy Advance:
Ahhh… nothing like ripping sprite sheets to make myself happy. 🙂
Fun With Bookworm For The Game Boy Advance
I found a GBA game that looks similar to Scrabble Blast, and that is Bookworm. It’s a puzzle game where the objective is to link letters and create words to feed the hungry bookworm while trying to keep the fiery red letters from reaching the bottom of your library or else the game is over. Also, you’ll be rewarded with bonus letters if you make long words. Here’s the gameplay of what I’m talking about:
I’m currently at level 15 right now, and I’ve been currently ranked Editor after completing the previous level:
I think this will be a good place to do a checkpoint because I’m heading off to rippify some sprite sheetifications. Goodnight!
