Splinter of the mind’s eye
Posted in Adventure, Games, News on March 21st, 2013 by quantumsheepHello lovelies!
Just a small update on all things sheepy!
There’s a number of projects on the go at the moment.
My friend Jake is working on (and has been for a while) a little game called ‘Red Mist’. I have no idea when it’ll get finished, but it’s interesting and fun, and might be published through me. Yay!
Then I have a few adventure games in various states of completion. They’re very hard to do π
On top of that I’ve been learning to use Unity as I wanted to do some 3D games too. It’s fun and stuff, and the results are pretty spectacular looking. I just have to learn how to use it better. Understand it better.
So I can make sheepy games with it!
Also, I’m trying to port games over to Windows 8, but don’t have a stable testing environment for it right now. Microsoft have been very helpful, but it’s just taking forever it seems.
The projects are pretty varied. You have the adventure games (plain text, choose your own adventure, Myst type etc), a first person shooter with no guns and a 3D on-rails shooters.
So you can see, I’m being pulled in several directions, and have been for a while now.
In some ways, it’s kinda nice and varied. If I hit a brick wall somewhere on one project, I can move onto another for a while pretty quickly and no time is wasted.
One day could be spent setting up movement paths and turrets in 3D, or learning how to edit C# scripts. Another might be spent just writing locations for an adventure game, or touching up some art.
But really I need to focus a bit more. And I am going to really try and do that!
Also, I just hit 600 followers on Twitter (@quantum_sheep) – thank you all, that’s really, really lovely! Sheepyhugs for all! π
Speak soon!
