Over the years, I've run into a number of games that either don't come with jewel cases at all, or don't have any backs for the jewel case.

It's been a while, but I finally put together a gallery for games on the Sega Game Gear.

For a while I didn't bother posting anything about this project because I didn't really do much.

After Game Boy and Neo Geo Pocket Color, it's time for a gallery of... the Atari Lynx!

Having previously done the Game Boy Gallery, I was inspired to do another gallery of portable screenshots: this time for the Neo Geo Pocket Color.

Well, it's very very very late, but Dungeon Mapper is now on Github in my own repo area.

I finally decided to post my current granola bar recipe, as it has shifted quite a bit since the earlier one I posted way back in 2013.

When running games in Linux, especially through Wine, occasionally you will run into a game that doesn't support fullscreen and otherwise appears a bit small for comfort.

This game is a solitare variant that uses two colours of dice instead of cards.

Following from my Super Mario Maker levels, here are the levels I have made for the sequel.

This is just a heads up that the ROTT, Xargon and Shadow Caster mapping and resource extraction scripts have been upgraded to support Python 3.x versions.

It's yet another quirky firmware project for the Arduboy!

It should go without saying that there are a lot of guides to installing GRUB and fixing GRUB stuff for Linux users (not the least of which is the Arch Wiki.

When I was playing the Arduboy game Mystic Balloon, I got a bit lost in some levels due to the limited viewing area, so I thought it would be fun to make a map generator tool.

This is an article on running Caldera Open Linux 1.3 on QEMU.

The Ace of Penguins is a collection of solitaire and other computer games, mostly modelled after those included in Windows or the Microsoft Entertainment Packs.

X Solitare (xsol) is a VERY basic Klondike solitaire implementation.

XPacman is a fascinating, though bare-bones, clone of Pac-man.

XShisen is an implementation of the Shisen-sho variety of Mahjong solitaire.

When starting this normally, you would be forgiven in thinking it is a straightforward clone of Sokoban.

Trojka is a falling block puzzle game, somewhat similar to Columns, but using its own matching rules.

XEvil is a bit of a departure from the games posted so far, in that it is the first game designed primarily for multiplayer play, and deathmatch at that.

XBill is probably the least-likely of these games to be forgotten, but I would be remiss if I covered old Linux games without mentioning it.

Oonsoo is is a solitaire/patience game involving Hanafuda cards.

Another game, another clone.

XPat is a collection of solitaire/patience games.

XVier is a single-player implementation of Connect Four against the computer.

Yup, it's a Pac-Man clone.

XLander is a 3D wire-frame lunar lander clone.

Jewel Box is a fairly faithful clone of Columns.
