Machinarium

I saw Machinarium on sale for $5 so I decided to try it out. Best $5 game ever. The first thing that caught my eye was the artwork, which is absolutely amazing. Every scene in the game is like playing in a work of art.

You play as a little steam punk robot that’s trying to find his robot girlfriend. In order to find her, you need to navigate a series of puzzles and scenes in order to move on. A lot of the puzzles are games, some of the levels contain basic programming. I have to admit I needed help on a lot of the levels because of the complexity. If you have some time to kill, definitely try this game out. It was a very enjoyable experience.

Vox Ball Stats

Ever since we started keeping stats at Vox Ball using the iScore iPhone app, Yeeland’s been working hard at getting a website up to display all the stats. He has a new version up with player profiles and more comprehensive stats. Probably nicer than most leagues out there and we’re just a weekly pick up game. Go check it out.

iPhone4 Bumper Review

Enoch — Mon, 02 Aug 2010 14:31:37 +0000

Pros
- The iPhone4 has always felt delicate, the bumper makes it feel a lot more solid and impact resistant
- The case is designed by Apple and you can tell, it’s more polished and fits the industrial design a lot better than other cases
- The rubberized edges keep the iPhone from slipping and sliding when on a desk or other surfaces
- I have a car holder from Proclip and they have a new iPhone4 holder that accomodates the bumper.

Cons
- Attracts lint around the edges of the case which drives me crazy since I’m a bit OCD about my technology
- Harder to put in and pull out of the pocket because of the rubberized edges
- Doesn’t fit the iPhone4 dock that I bought

Blog Snafu

You may have noticed I changed the theme of my wordpress install. I didn’t really plan on changing the theme but I tried to update my old theme from Modularity 1.1 to 1.2 and it effectively screwed up a lot of the modifications I had done on it. So after trying out a ton of different themes in the past few days, I’ve settled on this one. I don’t find it that much better than my old one, but it’ll work for now.

Golf

Enoch — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 16:25:21 +0000

If you guys have been following my twitter or flickr at all, you probably noticed I’ve been playing a decent amount of golf lately. I played a few rounds right out of college but never got around to buying myself a set of clubs. Clem asked me to play about a month ago and after that I decided to finally invest in the game. If golf is a drug, Paul and Clem became my dealers. Paul found a deal at a golf course right behind my house. Morris Williams has a $50/month all you can hit range balls. On top of that you can get a 18 hole round for $10 with cart after 3pm. I’ve played there 3 times with Paul now.

So in the past month I’ve improved my score from around 110 down to 102. The goal right now is to break 100 and consistently shoot in the 90′s. My short game has turned out to be my strength but my putting still needs a lot of work. I also have an iPhone app called GolfCard that allows me to track my scores and upload them to oobgolf.com. If you want to look at some of my score cards from the past few weeks, here’s a link to my profile on the site. I’m a stat junkie so I love being able to break down all the different numbers that revolve around the golf game. If any one is interested in a round of golf, let me know!
