Just Wow, not in a good way.

Ergh, my account got temporarily suspended tonight because the hoster had detected possible malware/virus content. At first they reported only one file, which I deleted, but it turned out there was much more wrong with the files, so after some struggling I decided to remove all the content altogether from the site, and then add it back after extensive virus checking.

Turns out things weren’t as bad as I initially feared; while there seem to be some files that were genuinely infected with malware/virii, most of the game files seem to not have been affected. Currently I’m checking every file with VirusTotal and adding them back once they’ve got good results.

What’s strange about the matter is that certain games which were reported as malware only get the result when I test the files uploaded on my webspace. The files on my hard-drive generally don’t get any kind of alarm. This makes me wonder how the files uploaded can have been infected. Of course, this makes my job easier: I can just replace the infected files with fresh ones. Still annoying, and I apologize to anyone who may have downloaded possibly infected content from my site. Sorry.

AARRGHH

Been hugely lazy and demotivated lately. Gotta get a game going!! And also give some use to that world generator I showed off earlier, it’d be a shame not to use it!

Be A Man – the story of World War Swing Show-off

No More Sweden was really intense and fun this time around! I’m currently in the house of one of the organizers, watching some football. Everything has gone fine this far and I’ve had a great time here. Hopefully I’ll get safely home, too!

Anyway, here’s the game I made for for the 48-hour game jam. My theme words were World War, Swing and Show and I made a really tiny game from the first idea I could get. Hopefully I’ll do something better next year. :) Daniel Remar’s Be A Man was one of the funniest games I’ve ever played, I hope he uploads it even though it may be hard to understand the inside-jokes.

(It’s a two-player hotseat game, all the instructions are in the game file!)

No More Finland For No More Sweden

I’ll be leaving tomorrow for No More Sweden, the most amazing tiny indie jam this summer. All the cool guys shall be there, or at least northern cool guys!

JCP playthrough by PurplePineapple

This good fellow from the Nifflas’ forums made a nice playthrough of Jump, Copy, Paste! It’s really interesting to see how other people react to my puzzles.

It is time for some action.

Boo yah, finally got around to add this blog here. Soo, this is a blog of me, Arvi Teikari, and don’t expect me to update very actively, I already have too many things to remember! I’ll post here about my game projects, and also about other things. I think you’ll see mostly posts about Excavatorrr during the next weeks, though.
