A short while ago we partook in the Wild Pockets bay area game jam.  It’s a 24 hour competition where you get a team of up to 5 people and make a game as fast as possible.  Our team was able to make 2 games which worked out quite well since we were able to [...]

Last weekend Wild Pockets put on a 24 hour game jam competition.  For those of you who have never heard of a game jam it’s a competition where teams make a game in a short period of time.  In this case it was roughly 20 teams each making their own game using the wild pockets [...]

Just picked up a new macbook and downloaded Unity3d.  Check out my first creation here.  If you’ve never installed the plugin you’ll be required to do so.  Try clicking on the chest once you’re up and running.
I’m really digging Unity, especially the power to link game objects directly to a script via drag-n-drop.  Let’s hope [...]

Behold, my first true Flash game.  I’ve learned a lot, the colors don’t match, and many things could be improved.  But I just had to finish something for once (Hazel, you’re still on my to do list, I swear).

The music from the recently released Xbox live arcade game Castle Crashers has been released for download (I just bought a 360 last night so I could play this game, among many other games).

Behold my first flash “game”:

We will be watching you, Crimson Star.  You’re almost lookin’ good.
Check out the development blog here.

Jasper’s Journeys is a sidescrolling 2d platformer with cute graphics.  This bunny is really well polished, smooth, and shiny.  Nice use of colors, guys.  Your goal is to collect gems for money, fruit for weapon ammo and gold orbs because they’re golden orbs.  There are also several types of powerups you can get throughout the [...]

A fresh new preview of the 2d platformer “Skin & Bones” has been released.  The whole game is fresh to me because it’s the first time I’ve heard of it.  Have you heard of it?  Either way, now you have.
Looks like you control 2 different characters and flip between them with the push of a button.  [...]

 
The Hazel art directory of is filling up.  I sent one of the last art requests away and will only-probably-hopefully have 1 more medium sized request.  So all I really need are more scrolling background objects and particle effects.  There will most likely be a few more items that’ll pop up but for the most part I’m ready to actually start [...]
