An update

I became a (very proud) father last week of a beautiful baby boy, which is why I’ve been rather quiet here lately. 🙂 Also, while that happened, I was rewarded an Opera goody bag for my Arkanoid widget. Thank you Opera!

Operanoid Widget


I’m happy to report that the Operanoid game is now also available as widget.

The gameplay is basically the same as for the DS version, except you use the mouse to move the paddle. The widget also features a minimize button and a spiffy logo. I know, just what you’ve been waiting for.

Enjoy!
