Irony: You go to school to learn. They teach you how to use computers. You learn computers well enough that you use that knowledge to change your test grades at said school from Fs to As.
Seems like they should be offering this young man a job with Homeland Security’s anti-cyber terrorism unit. Instead, he may not see freedom until he’s into his 50s.

Other Stuff:
It’s been nearly a year since Finnish casual games student/genius Petri Purho brought the amazingly simple experimental game Crayon Physics to the world, and ever since then we’ve been hungry for more. He reportedly has been working on a more highly-polished version called Crayon Physics Deluxe (see my previous post for more info and video,) but apparently one gentleman (programmer Alejandro Guillen) got a little tired of waiting…
His take on the concept is a little flash game called Magic Pen. It features roughly the same type of gameplay (as well as some of the levels lifted directly from Purho’s game,) with a more highly-polished interface, and some of the ideas last spotted in the C.P.D. video brought to fruition (pivots, other shapes, etc.) through over two dozen levels.
It’s unclear what the intellectual property ramifications are of these two very similar games being brought into existence. I’m still looking forward to C.P.D., and I hope that our Finnish friend delivers on it SOON. In the meantime, I can’t wait to really dig into this game. My wife already has like a 10-level headstart…
*Many thanks go out to the lovely and talented Juannah who brought this to my attention. She has a great blog, which YOU should go check out.
