CRAP GAME CORNER In case your were wondering where RICH PELLEY and Crap Games Corner have got to this issue, they're both here. FUNKY TESTICLE By Leigh Loveday A bit more cheating, going on here, as this one was 'sneakily' done using Marble Madness Construction Kit. However, it would have been even more sneaky if you didn't have to load the thing into Marble Madness before you started. Anyway, it's vaguely okay-ish though. I dunno if you've ever seen Marble Construction Kit, but it's quite good and very user-friendly, so even the most stupid person can use it. It's also quite fun to having spent one (very lonely) afternoon making up my own game on it ages ago. Funky Testicle, apart from its rather lurid title (in fact I don't even think I'm allowed to say 'testicle' in this mag) (You're not. Ed) is nothing particularly new, and doesn't even have anything to do with male genitals. Oh, apart from the balls of course, which are what you have to roll down the track without falling off the sides, or running into a caterpillar (which does look a bit like a 'thingy' come to think of it). The tracks are shaped into everything from wiggly lines to one which says 'YS' (if you look closely enough) - natty, eh? And that's about it, really. Still, you have give him some credit for trying. I suppose.

A bit like being on a ski-slope really, isnt it? (Or perhaps !

ED'S NOTE Although this is rather unlike us, we would like to be extremely serious for a moment as we have some rather upsetting news. It's Rich Pelley, you see. He's dead. A fatal overdose of Nice 'n' Spicy Nik-Naks apparently (6 packets - a new world record). We found this suicide note nearby... "Dear Readers, I just can't go on. These crap games are driving me mad as I feel that they really are becoming too stupidly crap and the whole feature too pointless to carry on. Okay, so it was a pretty funny joke to begin with, but you've got to admit, it's all getting a bit boring and unfunny now. I've therefore decided to kill myself. Bye then. Rich. PS. However, we will be sticking any decent games we receive on the covertapes (and doing the occasional Good Game Corner), so do continue sending these in, won't you? But remember - no crap ones. Not even one, as these will just get slung out immediately. Cheers then." Blimey, eh? THE END
