Eight-bit fun. This was a bit of nostalgia and has interesting special effects as well.

Why Honest Monkey

So lots of people have been asking Honest Monkey (well, actually, no one has, but...) why "Honest Monkey"? Why choose that for a site name? Basically, Honest Monkey says "Why not?" Originally, the choice was going to be Blind Monkey, but that choice was already taken. Most of the different colored monkeys were all taken as well. Big Dumb Monkey? Gone. Honest Monkey looked around for a monkey title that wasn't taken and was surprised to find that Honest Monkey was up for grabs. The rest is history, or will be as long as Honest Monkey pays his fees.

Why a Monkey

Well, again why not? Monkeys are cute and are our closest genetic relatives. And if a monkey is honest, so much the better.

Not terribly informative

Yes, Honest Monkey knows.
