New website design

December 9, 2011

After much humming and hawing and re-copy-pasting-erasing I have finally put up a new design. Well...kind of new. I couldn't give up the nice blue sky. This one should hopefully stick around a little bit longer, and make it easier for me to update and publish new games. It also gives a consistent style across the entire site, from the games section to the blog, which is something I've wanted to have for awhile.

If anything looks wonky or doesn't work right, I apologize. I am still tinkering with the design and it will be a work in progress for a week or two more. The styling also uses some CSS3 voodoo which I have yet to run through the Internet Explorer gauntlet of testing, so if you are still running IE6 this site might look like the apocalypse to you. 

My-Escape / Critter Cubes

February 4, 2011

*COUGH*...is this thing still on? I can't believe I haven't updated in 3 years. I'm tempted to write about how I will definitely start updating it more regularly, but I know that's probably not going to happen. With my track record my next update will slide in sometime in 2016.

Anyways, though the website has been laying dormant, I have been busy with life and work. On the games front, for the past 6 months I have been working with the game design group My Escape, a great bunch of folks from all over the world who have come together to build killer flash games. So far we've done one, called Critter Cubes, a game about evacuating frozen animals from a zoo in Antarctica. The game taught me many things, such as the power and challenges of the great Box2D, and the relative difficulty of crabs. I encourage you to play the game!

I am not currently doing any development on the next game from the group, as I am currently running in standby/support mode while I get ready for the arrival of my first child. However I do plan to stay busy this year and put out some new games.
So there you go, three years of updates in one post. That wasn't so bad, was it?
