Released a new game, check it out on the games page!

Also, Blind Rush is a dead project, just helped me learn a lot- as did a few people on MSN, thankyou! I realised that the idea of having the background scrolling(the guy is allways running)..meant that the game wouldnt last long, as well as me having to spend hours on a background which would only be seen for about 15seconds...no point continuing an idea, which is clearly crap in the first place.

I also got offered a game development job in canada, ive been offered a few and its pretty amazing to be concidered. I wont be accepting things like this, just yet..i like being my own boss, in my own time

Next on the agenda, i will be plowing my way into a huge adventure platform game.. shooter, or fighter.. not sure yet. I have a ton of ideas in my head which i think i could finish, with a lot of time. I will probably be taking a life drawing class soon too, so my art is sure to improve. May start work on a short film, because im not too proud of all my animations so far, simply because they dont feature any plot or real characters... just action. Which is OK.. but id rather do more ambitious projects now..speaking of ambition, i might be starting a new website/alias/game dev powerhouse/short film publisher.. Icarus Studio. If i do, expect big things, and i will direct people from this old place.

(BTW, my hits counter is broken because i dont know website coding, thousands and thousands have visited here, not 2..the thing resets when it gets to about 600 or something- if someone can hook me up with something solid with this, then email me and thatd be great)

Started a new game today, which should be pretty special. It's called Blind Rush, and basically you interact with the environment to guide a blind boy, to some special place where he can regain his sight (plot not entirely thought out).

I did most of the game engine yesterday, and ill be doing a lot of the animation and art today. Here is the main character concept:



Should be finished in a week or two. I did some work on Hardcore survival a while back, and that is looking great too. Also, my coder has finished most of the engine for Cystal Sword, and it plays incredibly smooth.. sorry for the lack of updates. I promise i'll update more from now on.
