OK - I'vee failed to update this blog. Those few people who actually read this blog must for sure have forgotten all about it. Anyway here'sa small update.
University started again :(
My two classes were Linear Algebra and Network. The Exams for those two classes are in about two weeks, so right now I should be studying in stead if writing. ;)
I haven't programmed that much because of Uni, so not much to say about that.
Btw. It was my birthday in thursday (11th Oct.) I've recieved a Detroit Red Wings Jersey and a Henrik Zetterberg Figure :D
And the latest news is that I've preordered the new GP2X F200. It's an handheld console, but unlike PSP and NDS (Which I both own a copy off) it's opensource and runs a version of Linux. This means that everbody can make their own games and software for it legally. Well it's a new exciting toy for me ;)
You can read more about it here.
Until next time - Peter

Vacation Update
It's been a while since I last worked on my game. I don't really know why besides the fact that I've been busy watching sport. Beside the last week of the tour, I've watched all the sport I wanted to watch. I must admit, that I'm disappointed with Cycling right now and I've completely dropped the sport for a long time. It's sad but it's reality.
On the positive side the Danish SAS-liga has started again and my team, Randers, is number one after a fantastic 5-0 win over Aab.
Back to programming. Thoug I haven't worked much on my game I still have been active on the programming side. I've been busy reading up on some Java and PHP since I'm gonna make some kind of a survey for a forum I'm a member of (www.iqon.dk - Danish)
However the really interesting thing is that I've actually read up on my 3D skills. I feel a lot more confident on my 3D programming and have started writing a small library to put my knowledge into use. It's not gonna be any fancy, but it will allow me to load and display static and animated 3D models. I'm also working on a simple particle system, so I may be able to make some 3D game in the following 12 months.
I suppose that's all for now, so happy coding or whatever you're spending your time doing.

Vacation
Just a small update.
I finished my last exam yesterday and you know what that means: Summer Vacation.
Vacation = Time,
Time = Chance to work on computer = Me making games :D
I'm planning on making a remake of an old game (already started) and I hope to finish this game during my vacation. Besides that, I also hope to get a chance to do a bit of reading about OpenGL so that I can improve my almost nonexisting 3D skills.
Ofcourse I'm not gonna sit in front of the comp all day. Summer also equals lot of sports (le tour, wimbeldon) so when I'm not working on my game I'm most likely watching sport.

I'm Alive
Well I haven't been active for like a month or two and I have no excuse besides me being lazy ;(
The PGD compo is over and it didn't go well. Real Life killed my game. :(
The scores hasn't been published yet, but I'll be surprised if I don't end last or at least in way down in the bottom of the list. My game isn't playable. You can hardly call it a game at all, but it doesn't matter anymore. I'm going to start on a new game much more exciting. It's a remake of an old classic, but I'm not gonna tell which one at this time.
It may take af couple of weeks before I get started. I'll have to finish my exams in the next few weeks, but the I have a complete summer vacation to program in :)
It seems I don't have anymore to say. I just had to write something in this blog since I was beginning to feel guilty. ;)

Am I dead?
No I'm not dead, but I'm not doing well either.
The game is progressing slow. Actually it isn't progressing at all. I haven't been able to work on the game since the last post due to the hard life of studying at the university.
However I haven't given up on my game. I'm hoping that I'll be able to work a lot on the game this weekend. I need to implement the Light Gun part of my game and hopefully that'll be done by this weekend (at least a playable implementation should be done).
Well, this was just a small update to tell you that I'm still gonna make the game and that this blog isn't dead :)

The first public download
So the deadline is gone and I have uploaded what I've made so far. It really isn't much of game at this point, but the foundation is there. Hopefully I'll be able to work on the game in the next couple of weeks. I also better find someone to do the graphics for me. It's not really pretty at this moment. Perhaps a talented artist can fix that :D
Well, if anyone is interested in seeing what I've made so far here's a link to the Download
Keep in mind that this is early WIP. Take a look at the readme before starting the game ;)

Life is cruel
So you may be wondering why I haven't posted anything for a week. The answer is simple. The world is mean. After being an extra in that movie I got sick. Really sick. To sick to sit in front of my computer and work on the game.
Then around Friday, I'm feeling OK (not quite 100 % yet) and I want to post my progress. Ah, No can do. My Internet has stopped working. I can't do anything. My life has stopped :P
OK, my life didn't exactly stop, but I where unable to post progress and check the other competitors progress (You should check www.delphigamer.com and watch some of the other games. They're really cool). However I have worked on my game and it's progressing in a nice pace. I've added a simple menu and made it possible to move your units and end your turn. The next real thing I have to do is implement my Light Gun game. However I may just do a bit of extra work on the strategy part. I have to make a stage goal in the competition and the deadline is on Saturday. I think I've done enough to complete the stage, but I better do some extra to be on the save side. Of course I may have to turn in my game tomorrow since I haven't got my Internet back yet (I'm in writing this @ DIKU), so I don't have that much time.
Well, hopefully I can post some screen shots soon (Though they aren't pretty).
Until next time, Peter
