Abandoned games

I’ve abandoned a number of game development projects through the years – not so much recently, though.

Still, I felt like uploading some of the older ones, and they can be found at the Abandoned Games page. Enjoy.

An immense lack of updates, here.

I am currently developing a system for managing multiple online shops. This system is already in production, yet feature requests come in at a higher rate than what I can keep up with. As such, I haven’t had time to keep this blog alive. That, and Starcraft II has been eating up my time as well.

Straight after I found out preordering Starcraft II could get me a Beta Key, I did. Contrary to the original Starcraft, I am not going to let myself fall behind out of lack of experience. Slowly but steadily, I climb the soon-to-be-wiped Beta Ladder – currently in the Bronze League, but I have no intention of stopping there.

If the first Starcraft and its expansion – or Blizzard’s games in general – are anything to go by, Starcraft II should become the de facto competitive Real-time Strategy game. I intend to reach a point where I can enter tournaments and not end up dead last, at least.

Must construct additional Pylons.

Migrate, merge

This is simply the generic new blog woo-post. Hopefully I will be able to have just this one (instead of the inactive three I trick myself into believing I update these days). The next few days should see me moving old posts here.

Do you want a new blog with your burger?

That’s right, I’ve started up a new blog (third on this site, actually)! This time around, it’s for game development.

I can’t really get around to updating my other two (personal and misc.), and one of these days, I should merge the two into one – that way, I can have one for personal stuff, and one for game development.

I’ve lost most of the image resources of the other blogs – I would have wanted a post-it note on this page, too.

Anyway, I will be keeping this entry relatively short, since I have a vast amount of coding to do – a new game in the making, more information will follow.

Tweet tweet

I decided to try and jump onto the new fad that is Twitter (just like I did with Facebook last year, oh well). At the moment, you can see my latest tweets (updates) in the sidebar to the left.

Come to think of it, I should also get around to fixing the RSS feed on this site. Well, there’s a project for “tomorrow”.

Host down

My host, Hotserv, has been giving me some problems lately. All I can say is “I don’t know when the site will work properly again”.

Not much new stuff here, though I suggest you have a look at HyperBol; some kind of strategy game.

Working as intended

The site is finally finished. While I am planning on updating it somewhat often, this is how it’s going to stay for a while.

If you have any suggestions, corrections, broken links or bugs you want to point out, please contact me.

I intend to make an art page and a picture page before long. Enjoy your stay!

Final touches

Not much left to do now; a few links here and there, a proper calendar, and some more polaroid pictures should bring the site in a more or less ready state.

Ready for what, you might ask? I have no idea!

Anyway, I suggest you have a look at the random page, since that’s hopefully where the most updates will be. I’ll try to write a news entry when I add stuff there, but I might not get around to that.

Also (not) worth noting; I am considering showing two or three news items instead of one on the front page.

Touched up

Though this site is still very much under contruction, I felt like writing a news entry. Lots of stuff to come (I wish).

This new layout is heavily based on the previous, only this time around, I’ve actually done all the graphics by myself. It came out more or less how I wanted it, so that’s great.

For now, none of the links work, but that should change soon. Enjoy your stay, hope you’ll return when the site is done!
