Global Game Jam 2010: I am an Artist

This past weekend I participated in the Global Game Jam, hosted by Creative Calgary. The event was extremely well-run and an absolute blast.

Major kudos (whatever that is) to the event organizers, along with the judges from Bioware who I thought showed a lot of class and gave quality feedback and had an honest appreciation for all the games created.

Harmonization

I'm just about ready to launch another Alpha (read: at least a couple weeks solid of fixing, tidying up, etc.) I'm in the state of development where I'm just kind of walking around making notes about what's broken and what seems to be missing.

Problem: Trekking to the Cave is Boring

Early on you have to trek along a river bank to a cave; this is a nice enough trek but a bit empty-feeling. I really wanted to solve this, but somehow felt I should avoid the obvious thing of having enemies along the path.

Happy 2010 from KITTY*LAMBDA!!!

This Year:

This year was a great year for me, I spent three months in Hong Kong and Thailand, made excellent progress with The Real Texas and made a few different games: YOU GOT A DEMONWALL, Harry's Questival, and Hunters of the Northwest Passage.

Next Year...?

Next year I'm looking forward to more progress on Texas, playing some more great games and making new friends.
