Asylum Studios Present's: Mike Hardy's MineXp ©Copyright June 21st, 2003 ======================================================== INSPIRATION BY A REAL GHOST! ======================================================== Hello Everyone, I'm Michael J. Hardy and You going to think I'm Crazy but I'm going to tell you what inspired me to write "MineXp" I was Home alone on June 13th, 2003 at 6:13am after my Wife left for Work. I was playing a game on my Computer called "Doom95" and I heard a Voice come from behind me It said "DON'T BE AFRAID" I Turned Around Quickly and what I saw was amazing as well as scary. I saw a Women (You could see right through her) I asked in a scared way "What do You Want?" She Replied I have passed on and I need your help! I said My Help? How? She then stated "GET MY NAME OUT THERE!" I said How? She said I watch you all day long from the time your Wife leaves for Work till the time she gets home and All You do is play on your computer. She said you have the internet so I figured you can put my name out there. I said How? She then replied "Get a Programming Compiler" I said o.k then what? She said Write and Compile a game then include a Text File stating what inspired you to write the game and include my name. I asked What's Your Name? She said Softly "Karen" I said o.k Karen, What type of game should I write? She said Stratedgy! I asked Stratedgy? Why? She said because I am a Stratedgy! I said o.k. What should I call the Game? She said base it off of MineSweeper, She said because when I was alive all I did was play Minesweeper on my Windows 3.1 System I said what should I call it? She said anything you wish. I said o.k I'll call it "MineXp" Xp Standing for Xtreme Paranormal. She then stated make the game with Sound Effect's because I always though the Win 3.1 Version was Boring with NO Sound. I said o.k. So I got a Visual Basic 4.0 (32-BIT) Standard Edition Programming Compiler and Started to write MineXp The game only took 13 hours to write She said don't worry Mike oneday your work will pay off and some Software Game Publisher will be interested in MineXp and will want to publish it for alot of money. So see everyone I hope what she said is true because I sure could use the money. If you don't believe in Ghost then come to our house at 636 E. Vine Street in Sullivan Missouri for I asure you they are real. Karen is only one of the 13 Ghost that lives in our home.
