first up, miniLD last month was hosted by the very awesome Terry Cavanagh, and he told us to work in teams, so me and my friend LoganvSteenderen teamed up, me with code and animation and him with epic modeling and texturing:

I’m busy with a project at the moment and its pretty damn cool, but I’m not announcing it yet so you’ll have to wait, it should be done within the month hopefully so you shouldnt have to wait long, once thats done I’ll resume work on Edward and not stop until it is feature complete and all known bugs are dead. after that I’ll take a look at all my projects and my finances and decide where to go from there.
Foresight ‘game’ and other stuff

'The ability to foresee or prepare wisely for the future.' according to the wiktionary
so I had the idea when working on a time travel game a while back (dont groan, everyone h played around with time travel =p) and I figured why not be able to see what you will do as well as what you have done? its not hard to figure out what will happen in the future with a simple system, so I’ve played around with prototypes that let you see what will happen to you and choose to ‘change the future’ (so to speak) for a better outcome.
the latest prototype for this is available to play here
the trouble is I just dont know where to take it from here, so I’m posting it here in the hopes it might be inspiration for someone else, and maybe I’ll come up with something to make it more interesting to me and make a proper game with it, but its not likely.
oh, in other news I released Alpha 7 of Edward (a free flash platform engine for non coders) a little while ago. its very close to being feature complete so if you are into that kind of thing check it out.
also, I have a couple of smallish projects I hope I can finish this week and then I’ll get back to work on phantasmal (which I have been avaiding as alot needs redoing D:)
also also, I hacked at bits of my site yesterday, doing stuff like improving links and adding links to the forum. sadly I had to kill the gallery, the software for it was just driving me mad, if you are desperate to see my pics though there is always deviantArt 🙂
also also also, I hosted mini Ludum Dare last weekend and some awesome stuff was made, check it out.
Made a game this weekend
