Earlier we announced that Nuclear Nova Software would be selling homemade small-batch maple syrup, well now we’ve decided to accept Bitcoin as a form of payment!  Sometimes we need a break from coding, so we tapped 200 trees and made some delicious syrup this year! Darker in color than commercial operations that produces thousands of gallons as quickly as possible, our syrup has a stronger “maple” taste and the same sweetness as light/amber. We ship anywhere in the USA with USPS priority mail, prices are as follows and shipping is included with the price!

• 1/5th Gallon – $17 – Pay With Bitcoin
• Quart – $20 – Pay With Bitcoin
• Half Gallon Jug – $32 – SOLD OUT
  • Alternate – Three 1/5th gallon liquor bottles – $40 – Pay With Bitcoin
• Gallon Jug – $55 – SOLD OUT –
  • Alternate – Five 1/5th gallon glass bottles – $60 – Pay With Bitcoin

Nuclear Nova Software is now selling homemade small-batch maple syrup! Sometimes we need a break from coding, so we tapped 200 trees and made some delicious syrup this year! We ship anywhere in the USA with USPS priority mail, prices are as follows

12 oz – $6.00
1/5th Gallon – $12

Shipping – $5 for 1 quart or less, $8 for 1/2 gallon, and $10 for 1+ gallon.

Due to issues with Blind Man’s Bluff, the monthly tournament for the Mac has been extended two days and Blind Man’s Bluff has been replaced with Ashdown Country Club. If you are stuck on the second round, try the following

1. Start a new game on any other course, the game may warn you that you’re in the middle of a tournament round but ignore it and start anyway

2. Immediately save to the main menu, and open the the tournament screen

3. Press Play, it will probably tell you that the tournament progress has been lost

4. Reset tournament progress and start again.

Sorry if you had a good first round, you’ll have to redo it, but this should allow you to finish the tournament

• New golfer graphics – Bump/specular maps, more animations, skins, ect
• Turn based networked multiplayer

We’ll of course continue to support GL Golf, Nova Golf, and Disc Golf 3D, but we feel it’s time for another major update to our golf series! We’ve decided to put the second barnyard blaster and third pinball table on hold, this aligns with our current customer base’s interest. Keep your eyes pealed for more here, as well as new large updates for the golf games in the coming months!
