Tardis.dk Remakes

Isn’t it just typical? I’ve honestly had a bit of trouble motivating myself to work on my primary projects lately, and just as I was settling into a nice rhythm of doing almost nothing, some crazy curry-munching ungroomed, overly ambitious and sheepishly-looking admin decides that I should get my finger out. I take this very personally but on the other hand – how can I say no to a scary thing like that, eh? 🙂

Over at Retro Remakes Bob has decided that October is ‘Finish Something Month‘ and although the threat hasn’t been spoken out loud I’m afraid my dreams will be invaded by purple squids if I don’t comply. Scary indeed – who wants squids in their dreams.

Luckily I’ve been fooling around with a smaller project which is almost finished, so I hope to finish it sometime later this month. The original game is not exactly the best or most complex game in the world but it could really benefit from a remake as it’s pretty…shit really. Hopefully my remake will be slightly better.

I’ll announce it here when it’s done but it will probably not be downloadable from here or even carry the names ‘Sokurah’ or ‘Tardis Remakes’ but not because it’s shit but because of something else, which should be obvious once it’s out.

I got a really nice mentioning in the latest issue of Retro Gamer Magazine (issue 67).
I was interviewed for the “Homebrew Heroes” section, so if you’re interrested in reading a bit about me you should seek out that issue.

Homebrew Hero

Perhaps I should update you people a little on what I’m doing while I’m here.

I get a lot of messages about Psycho Pigs UXB (even when you subtract all the ones from one particular person. Hi Flash. ;)) which is taking longer that anticipated.

The thing is that I won’t put it out with a shitty AI so I have to make sure it’s good before I release it. That’s why it’s delayed. Not that I’m working on it right now – I’m busying myself with a small sideproject which should be done soon (within a month). When that is done I hope to get on with the piggies.

About that “sideproject” – I’ll announce it here, and I’ll link to it from here (I think), but I won’t be hosting it myself and there’s a pretty good reason for that, but that will be appearant once it’s done. It’s coming along nicely though – not much left.

I’ve also ordered an iPhone 3GS and I hope to be able to develop something for it (it’s on backorder from my provider though). I already have a few ideas for games but it’ll have to wait until 2010 because I’m already working on 4 games and I don’t need any more things to delay those.

Stay tuned for more news.
