I’ve looked at Unity before, but I hadn’t really seen anything really worth the download of the plugin yet, let alone learn the application. Velociraptor Safari is certainly worth it though! The game is just a little download and runs in your browers but it’s in full 3D and plays just like a real game [...]
They’ll destroy you in my new game! Hopefully I’ll have it done within a couple of weeks. Maybe.
It’s pretty much true. These are hilarious, and there’s four whole episodes now.

I even learned something about Photoshop in the most recent episode!
Also, now I’ve really gotta make a game about spies! With guns inside their rings.

I guess I’m a bit late to the Dan Deacon party, [...]
Two fun looking food construction ideas I came across yesterday:
Pixel Cookies. Or biscuits in the old tongue. A playdough extruder is used to create pixels out of biscuit dough, which can be arranged into pixel art!
Edible Googly Eyes. With FSM attached! Edible Googly eyes are constructed from vitamin casings and large sprinkles.
I’ll post if I [...]
I have finally finished cleaning up and streamlining the code for my voxel engine. It’s even in a sensible class. It seems to run faster and look cleaner than previous versions even though there are no major changes to the code since the previous version. There’s no real hard coded numbers now (previously there was [...]
A full week without a post! That’s very bad form! But I have been away without internet, so that is my excuse.
Anyway, my site was on Daily Slurp while I was away. That is pretty cool since my basic technique for generating web site design ideas when I get stuck is browsing Daily Slurp and [...]
