Anyway, I’m at the University right now, just finished writing an exam, and am preparing for two more that are coming this Friday. My University appears to be outside the boundaries of my time bubble as-well, so I couldn’t anticipate the questions on the exam, which by the way had very little in common with what we’ve been studying during the year, which leads to my  diminished self-confidence about the forthcoming results of this test. But fear not! For there is still hope drifting through my veins, and I’m not ready yet to plead for mercy before the invincible and mighty number of doom (FYI, it’s 5). Have I already mentioned that I’m high on adrenaline right now? No? Well, apparently adrenaline is equal or greater than creativity, and leads to a fast incineration of calories, resulting in immediate hunger.

I’m out for a snack now, see you later.

In the past, almost twelve years, we’ve been witnessess to an endless massive campaigns promoting this game all around, showing us inside peaks, and promises of the upcoming release, to the point it all began to look like a bad hoax.

During this time, they’ve restarted the project countless times, changed and rechanged the base game engine and they still don’t have anything to show! And apparently it’s going to stay that way. Two days ago, 3dRealms, the studio that was making this game, announced their production will be shot down, because of funding problems. Though I’m of the opinion this is not the only reason for the termination of their work. Games are nowadays developed, usually and sadly in only about a year or two. This of course results in some initial bugs and unfinished features, but no game to date has taken so much time to develop as Duke Nukem, and still not showing anything. I, as a gamer would seriously expect some extraordinary features, unseen game play and revolutionary techniques present in a game that’s been in the works for more than a decade. I guess they didn’t make anything revolutionary so far and are just afraid to show their fans (if they’re still any left) nothing more than an ordinary game.

While the perception of my efforts towards the freshness of the contents of Time Recursion may seem to me quite frequent, the past week has been archived in my memory as one of the longest, and possibly the best I’ve had in the past years. It all starts with the last Saturday in April, with the Day of Youth Festival we had in my home city. I think there’s no need to further delve into the fact, that I’ve been among the group of youngsters organizing this great Catholic event. I know you’re burning with curiosity, so here you go, grab some pictures!

Apart from that, we had a nice trip to Ljubljana with my family in the middle of the week, accompanied by Nina, who joined us again yesterday for a walk in the gardens of the Miramare Castle and later on for a quite long, but refreshing talk.
