In early 2011 I came up with an idea for an app for girls that were crazy about horses. In the app you would be able to choose your favorite horse, use brushes and such to groom it, select different pieces of tack for your horse to wear, and then share pictures of your dressed […]
Last month there was a mad rush to finish Horse Crazy before the deadline hit, I was updating people right and left, and then… (Cue the sound of crickets.) Nothing. Deathly silence. What happened, was the deadline hit? Was the product launched? Why was nothing more said?!? The True Story Behind The Last Minutes Of […]
I know it’s been a while since I posted a new tutorial on GDN, but one should be coming in the near future. One of the pieces of Horse Crazy turned out to be “generic” enough to be useful over and over again so I thought I’d write it up and share the code. Dwayne […]
Okay, it’s been 10 days since my last blog post about Horse Crazy and you can get a LOT of stuff done in 10 days, especially using something like Corona SDK.

Stinking holidays! Okay, I’m a day behind schedule thanks to camping trips and things like that, but I did get the list of art assets done today. It’s posted here: http://gamedevnation.com/horse-crazy-art-assets/ The thing I’m really wondering about is whether I can find someone who can do that in 2-3 weeks? I may be underestimating the […]
Day 1 – I registered the HorseCrazyGame.com domain name, wrote some test code for Horse Crazy (HC), and came up with the screens needed for the first version of the app. This Is Horse Crazy The game allows you to choose a horse, name it, and bring it into a stall where you can groom […]
horse crazy, ipad game, iphone game, ipod touch game90 days ago I had a great idea for an app and rushed to the Developer center to see if the name was already taken — it wasn’t! So I got it all set up to start coding and… …life intervened and I put it on the back burner. Today I got a nice reminder […]
