Blog wasteland

I have been very absent from this blog. But! the real reason is that I've been spending all my time coding furiously. I'm not very good at documenting my progress or what I'm working on, and that was kinda the whole reason I wanted to start this thing up in the first place.

Google+ 1GAM
This was one of the many motivators behind my flurry of activity which I have been very grateful for. I've posted about this before so I won't go on at this time.

Part of this process was to try for 1 Game each month, which is a very lofty goal. I was pretty well on track to at least have a proof of concept for my February game. That was until I ran into major road-blocks with the server technology(uLink) I was using. I didn't really have time or technical prowess to dissect the issue and the support hasn't been able to give me a response that resolves my issue. I also am not a paying customer, and was only using the trial download(which has no limits, and actually never expires). Besides my mis-step I really believe in their software and company as a whole. I will absolutely support their software once I have a viable game that uses it.

This leads me to my next project which I would like to chronicle in a separate post to keep it clean. The codename for this project is "superRpg" just because I like the sound of that. Only a codename at this point because I'm not sure what it will end up being, and it makes it sound important and a sequel of something.

Sometimes I think I know what I'm doing and what my brain is up to, and other times I do not. But I feel like there is something in there worth squeezing out with every ounce of willpower I have.

The main thing that keeps me going though is everyone in my gaming g+ circle. I see you all creating amazing stuff, and it makes me want it even more.
