    My Flash Player 10 Opinion - WOW!!!

    You either have it or you are seriously missing out.

    In my time as a Flash Designer, I am yet to come across a release of a Player that has provided the improvements that the new Flash Player 10 has given us. It is a MUST download, as it makes the games that were otherwise unplayable - playable! (Such as Aquatica)

    How is this possible in a player release? Well, Adobe have introduced GPU Hardware Acceleration in to the Active-X and stand alone player... about time, eh?

    So what are you still doing here reading this? GO GO GO! Download now! www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash

    Then zip across to Fizzy.com and play Aquatica the way I intended it to be played!

    Cheers,
    Ben.

    Boo!


    Yes it's true. I'm not dead. And neither is Exmortis 3... And to prove it, here is the first screenshot I've been prepared to let loose in a long time... :)

    Goliath hits 1 million plays!

    It was as much of a surprise for me as anyone else that Goliath The Soothsayer, after only being live for 42 days, has already hit the 1 million plays mark!

    It took Exmortis2 about 8 months to accomplish that feat - so to say that those involved in the production of this game are summarily chuffed by how quickly Goliath was picked up - well, that would be an understatement.

    I'm sure that as a result of this success, you will see a few more Universal Records/Leffler Web Design collaborations in the future :)

    So I send a MASSIVE thank you to all of you guys for playing the game. But for now, I get back to work at putting together a kick-ass Exmortis 3...

    Goliath The Soothsayer Bugs

    Hi all,

    Just a quick thank you for those of you who have reported bugs in the Goliath game... A quick FYI - those bugs were fixed over a month ago, however various websites in internetland decided to steal the game whilst it was in it's pre-release testing phase and publish it without Universal's or my consent. Hence a buggy version of the game is doing the rounds.

    For the actual "bug-free" version of the game, please visit Amazon.com or Newgrounds.com to see Goliath The Soothsayer as it was meant to be.

    Cheers,
    Ben.
