I know it’s a little late, but I figured I should put this up here for all to see. Here’s my Ludum Dare 22 keynote speech!

Hey there folks!

It’s certainly been a while since I last updated my blog, but I have some exciting news! 😀

I participated in Ludum Dare 17 last weekend and had a blast making a game based around the theme “islands”. The result? “Island Rescue”, a fun twist on the good ol’ falling blocks game where players must balance the clearing of lines with the survival of a friendly villager who faces grave danger at the hands of the ever-rising tide. Whew, that’s a mouthful.

What’s especially exciting is that the good folks over at Bytejacker have given me a pretty awesome review on the game. What a pleasant surprise!

I’ve set up a permanent project page right here, so go and check it out. 🙂

Hello internets!

It has recently come to my attention that the theme I was previously using is now the most popular custom WordPress theme. It was somewhat obscure when I started using it. Hmph!

Anyways, I decided to make my own little theme with a bit of a minimalistic feel to it. Of course, there are some other little bits of the theme that need to be worked on, too.

Yesterday was 9/9/9, so that’s the last of the era of single digits for a while. 😉

The September 2009 Ludum Dare results are coming up soon, so I’ll be posting my results (as well as my game) on here too. Yippee!

Lots of these guys down at Mackenzie Ponds in Red Deer. They are so cute!
