I quit my job on Monday.
Yaaaay!?
Very much so.  A huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders.  It feels good - no, great. No, fantastical. Yes, fantastical!  My eyes got a little watery on my last drive home from work, but not because I was upset.  No no noooo, They were tears of joy, tears [...]

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 [...]

The Game Developers Conference is going on this week.  A very awesome ex-coworker of mine lent me their pass so I had the chance to check out a couple sessions and walk the expo floor today.  I won’t mention the girls working the N-Gage booth at all because it would be inappropriate of me.  The [...]

Besides spending miniscule amounts of time on my side projects every week I’ve been listening to Silverburst.  It just so happens they kick bootay.  Listen to their music here.

Since I’ve decided posting every other day was taking up too much time I might just start posting videos every now and then.

 
C’mon people, stop posting so many comments.  The Internet tubes might burst from all this commenting.  I kid, I kid.  In reality there are hardly any comments because no one’s reading this site (Note to self: maybe I should update it more than once a month).  Why do I tell you?  Because at this point [...]

There has been a serious lacking of posts recently.  2 reasons:
1.  I went to Vegas last weekend with my family.  We saw Love (the Cirque Du Soleil / Beatles tribute show), and the Blue Man Group.  Both were fantastic, but love comes out on top because it’s absolutely amazing, and it has Beatles music.  If [...]

Aveyond 2 is a top-down RPG reminiscent of the old style SNES games.  To answer your question - RPG stands for Role Playing Game, not rocket propelled grenade, thank you.  But after loading up the game for the first time I thought I had been hit by the latter, died, and gone to heaven.  [...]
