I’m a video game buff and I’m just amazed by the mind of Joust’s creator, Eugene Jarvis. I mean – was he doing drugs when he came up with this stuff? Flying ostriches? Ostriches can’t even fly… Giant hands, lava trolls, stork / ostrich steeds? I almost did “Burger Time” to be different, but chose this instead…

Here’s the description I based this on from the www.klov.com web site:

“You are a knight flying on an ostrich, battling buzzard-mounted enemies. To fly, you repeatedly hit the flap button. To topple the Buzzard-Riders “the highest lance wins.” Two-player head-to-head play is excellent.”

Very dramatic telling. I vaguely remember the game, but I don’t think I got to play it. Actually makes for a neat story.

Wonderfully dramatic. Your story makes Joust (in my opinion) a little less silly. Nice job. :)
Oh, and nice reference: Sir Williams! I love it!

Kinda going for that corny “Starship Troopers” narration here – personally, I think it fell short… : P

AWSOME !!!!!!
