Let's Play SimTower 37: Constructing Considerable Condominiums
"Sir, we've been getting a lot of noise complaints around the tower. Apparently someone has been framing out condos in the middle of the night, every night, numerously and repeatedly..." I'm expecting this condition to persist for at least three more videos.

Commander Keen polishes off the Bonepile Crypt. The yellow key tries to be evasive. I get confused as to the yellow door's purpose.

Shit balls. A nice bit of crashing as I get into the action in round 1, followed by a nice bit of failing to pilot and gun a trial Cataphract.

Why did I say antler horns? Hope you are ready to hear lots and lots of jingle bells.
"Jazz Jackrabbit 2: Holiday Hare ’98 was the first add-on for the game Jazz Jackrabbit 2, denoted by its version number, 1.23x. The game, unlike previous Holiday Hare installments, had to be purchased. This is also the only ‘add-on’ to not include a JCS. HH ’98 included three new single player levels created by Jon MacLellan, a new tileset (with a day, an evening version, and a night version), and three reskinned bad guys. The enemies are: Xmas Float Lizard, Xmas Lizard, and Xmas Turtle. The ‘add-on’ also includes a new piece of music composed by Alexander Brandon.
Jazz Jackrabbit 2: Holiday Hare ’98 was only released in the United States, but also formed the basis for the European add-on The Christmas Chronicles, which was basically Holiday Hare ’98 released with the 1.24 engine."
