iPhone 3GS

Yay, I got myself a black 32GB iPhone 3GS today and I’ve already bought a couple of games to play on it. Fun fun fun.

Hopefully I can find the time to develop something for it (when I’m done with all my PC projects) but unfortunately I was stupid enough to upgrade to the latest 3.1 firmware so I’m not sure I’ll be able to jailbreak it which would make development easier. Oh, well, the latest firmware IS very new so perhaps if I have a little patience it will be possible to jailbreak it in a while.

…but I’m impatient. Can’t help it. 😀

Homebrew Hero

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.

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.

Now on Twitter.

It took me ages to join Facebook and now I’ve also joined Twitter. Just like with my games – I’m not quick, but I’ll get there eventually. 😀

Like most other people I will probably mostly use it for fluff, but I’m sure there will be updates about games and programming. Honestly, I wouldn’t know what else to write about. 😉

Follow me if you want to join the fun. I’m HERE.

Omega Race 2009: Remake of the month

Wohoo!
Not only do I get a mention in the latest issue of Retro Gamer Magazine,
but Omega Race 2009 is reviewed and awarded “Remake of the month“.

Me=happy. 🙂

Here’s a small scan of the article (I’m not posting the whole article as I don’t want to step on anyones toes).

Omega Race races ahead.

Meanwhile I’m getting ready for my vacation tomorrow – 2 weeks away from work. I need that. I’m not going anywhere though – just hoping for 2 weeks of rain so I don’t have to feel bad about sitting in front of the computer. 😀  One of my plans are to see if I can bang Psycho Pigs into shape by rewriting the AI in (again). I’ll let you know how it goes. 🙂
