I am the Jester.
I make games using JavaScript, C, C++, Mercury, Java, Assembly (amd64 and UltraSparc) and Python. I used to use Sphere a lot, but I'm more into C/C++ and Mercury nowadays. I still use JavaScript and embed it sometimes, and I usually use Python for build systems and system management.
I wrote TurboSphere, which is a recreation of the Sphere Game Engine with a number of major improvements. I'm not really working on it anymore.
I'm surely going to finish making a game someday. I mean, sooner or later, it's bound to happen. Right?

Puzzle thread
McBacon Jam #2
Deterministic Combat Systems
author=LightningLord2
-Default 95% hit rate (why need the miss?)
-20% damage variance (doesn't bother me, but I don't see any need for it)
-Critical hits (They could be reworked to always come in certain conditions)
Some games use skill rather than chance, like Paper Mario. A little QTE to determine if a hit is a crit of if it does half damage.
There is no life. There is no death. Only bacon. And jam.

@LightningLord2:
There's probably a simplified answer, but...
It wasn't really that hard to figure out, just tedious. In almost all situations there are only two valid moves, one of which just undoes your previous change. I suppose the big trick is that you can have as many cannibals as you want on a side if there are no missionaries on that side.

Is Win7 the best move to go from WinXP or can I just stick with XP?
Sticking to XP because Win7 is spyware?
If you are using WinXP, assume that literally every new virus will utterly pwn you. You're using one of the most common OSes--and guess what? It will receive no new security updates. AV helps, but AV is just a bandaid. You still get cut.
Worse still, you are left with XP (and Vista and early Win7)'s broken NTFS implementation which will result in corrupt drives quite often if you lose power.
If you are really, really worried about a spyware OS, you are out of luck. WinXP is a huge security liability, if you don't trust Win7 then you can't trust any Windows. Linux has US DoD code in it. FreeBSD and OpenBSD are good bets, although their drivers tend to come from companies in China and the US, probably in the governments' security agencies back pockets. OS X is known to phone home.
If spying is your concern, my honest advice is to assume that every computer is compromised.
If you are at all concerned with things like data integrity, performance, and reliability, then don't stay on XP. It's lacking in many basic amenities every new OS has had for the last decade now.
