Every Friday, Realising just how much older I am.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Print -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ; Hello World What a crazy week it's been. Since last week when I opted to start tracking all my "work", I've found myself doing a lot of little sub-tasks, just so I have something to post to my work diary! So much creativity! Just the other day, I opened up Blitz 3D and made a little retro-tastic character creation tool. It's not exactly "public worthy", so I haven't posted it yet, but I'll be using the resulting sprites in this week's AGameAWeek. Once posted, I'll probably jazz up the render tool and post it to the forum or something. Not sure if anyone'll use it, though. The resulting characters are very.. Erm... Stylised, shall we say? Anyway, busy week. And yet more to do before next week. Stay tuned!	-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- SoArtistic -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ; Rychan Can Draw Rychan shows off his artistic side, showing a wonderfully artsy picture of a woman. (Not like that!!!) Apparently he can draw more than Gameboy Pixelart!! socoder.net/?topic=5700 ; Pakz Can Draw Not to be outdone, Pakz makes his own artistic thread, showing off his ability to draw a multitude of faces. Art skills everywhere! socoder.net/?topic=5705 Can you draw? Why not post your own thread, and amaze us with your epic doodling! ...I often wonder how well Afr0s art style has developed since we last saw some of his work. Aaaah, memories..
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Inexplicable Oddities -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ; Infinity A GameBoy Color game that never found a publisher, so the Dev team apparently gave up on it. Released as an incomplete ROM image, by the authors, many many years later. I bet you could make a game out of that storyline, never mind the actual game!! affinix.com/ ; Wednesday Workshop An unexpected rebirth, as Wednesday Workshop is given a go, over 6 years since it last appeared. What a curious decision! This week's challenge is to make a game with only 10 onscreen objects at a time. Can you make a whole game out of that? Give it a whirl. socoder.net/?topic=5704 Note : Wednesday Workshop has been resurrected for a short trial period. If nobody else joins in, it'll quietly vanish back into the pit of horrors that it crawled out of. I just thought it'd be nice to be able to post about it in next week's newsletter!	-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- SoOffTopic -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ; BanBook GfK gets a Facebook ban for using his company name, for his company, and not his real name. Facebook have some pretty fucked up rules, sometimes. Glad I never added AL ODARE to Facebook. He'd've had a very hard time, I reckon. socoder.net/?topic=5703 ; Super Flipping Spinal I know this was in last week's Newsletter, but Spinal's made some fairly significant steps with Unity over the past week, and the game's looking awesome. Unfortunately, he's also looked into 3DS publishing costs, and decided it probably isn't going to work out. Aww socoder.net/?topic=5692
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Reading -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- www.johnplogsdon.com/l/383 A collection of Sci-Fi books from author John P Logsdon and Christopher P Young. Not sure who the Young guy is, but that first guy's name sounds awfully familiar. Hmmmm....
