Project Spark is the one thing that’s making me lean toward Xbox One vs PS4 (no, I haven’t made the leap to either, yet). I like that PS4 seems to be focused on GAMING where Xbone seems to be focused on (freaking) TV, but pSpark looks really interesting. I’m not quite ready to believe something like […]
Cool idea. If I were in an area where something like that was happening I’d be camping on their doorstep until they said yes. Here in Alaska, though, it’ll never happen. And it’s too freaking cold to camp on doorsteps. But you other guys? Go for it! Fire Hose Games’ indie incubator: ‘It’s ridiculous this […]
This is it, D-Day has arrived on the 2D game development scene with the release of Unity version 4.3. While the preview videos looked pretty good, we’ll have to play around and see how good the 2D workflow is. As long as it’s “good enough” then I think other 2D tools better make sure they […]
Every year I hope there will be enough game developers in Alaska so we can have a local location for the Global Game Jam. And every year I’m disappointed (I’ve been disappointed with the state just about every year since the early 80s, so nothing new there). Check out the site and see if there’s one […]
This is the kind of thing that’s cool and fun to do. And if you’re wanting to make game development your career, it’s a good first step. 31 Games In 31 Days: One Developer’s Quest For Practice – Indie Statik
Back in the day I was really into puppetry and my dream was to work with Jim Henson. In fact, years after most people were done with college I was making plans to attend UConn because they have a puppetry program and I found out Henson & Associates picked a lot of their Muppeteers from […]
Hmmm…one more reason to get Xbox One vs Playstation 4, although I hate to reward Microsoft for pulling dick moves earlier. “But Jay, they corrected those dick moves!” Yeah, but if you make dick moves and then change when people complain it says two things about you: 1. You aren’t smart enough not to make […]
This is nice — another level of Corona SDK that gives you the option of putting in-app purchases in your game. $192 for a year as a special launch price, then goes up to $250 a year. Note: I hate the pricing page Corona Labs has. Shows the monthly price, but they charge yearly. Such […]
I don’t agree with everything said in this article* but there’s so much good info you need to read it if you’re planning a game with in-app purchases. Gamasutra – Free-to-play tips, from Triple Town’s studio head * I don’t agree, but then I’ve sold a tiny percent of what they’ve sold so I could […]
