Oh man... falling behind on blogging!

BUT NO LONGER!

I've started work on a VERY exciting project and within the coming weeks this will consume my blog front page!

Very exciting stuff!

Wow.

This week was compromised! Basically I've dedicated this week to client work. However I do have a new plan moving forward. So I'll explain that and move onn! 

August - This is now the month to finish up Letter Bank multiplayer and to support Draft Oracle! I've done this to keep my focus on as few projects as possible. Moving forward I hope to never develop on more than one at a time.

September - The beginning of my new game! I already have art and the prototype moving along but when September really hits I'll go wild with development!

I'm looking forward to showing the 0 people that read this blog! :D

Venture forward!

Week 33 breakdown.

I've been busy!

So last week was a little mixed up. But this is a new week! So let's do it!

Here is what's happening this week.

Draft Oracle - A success thus far, Draft Oracle made its way to 9th in the U.S. paid sports apps on iOS! Hopefully is this ranking will generate organic downloads. Expect an extensive post mortem no September 6th!

Letter Bank - The multiplayer update hasn't been a huge priority so development is of course taking time. This will move forward quite fast when my next project's prototype is deemed viable.

Next Game's Prototype - aside from client work, this is my #1 priority. I really only see this lasting till Wednesday and hopefully I get a good feel for the game's potential. I will post "teaser" style screenshots, but don't expect me to give away too much info till mid September, barring the prototypes not very fun.

Screenshot Tuesday!

Letter Bank's menu with multiplayer is underway!

There're some key elements missing in this screenshot. 

The "Opponent  Susan" button will actually be a segmented button with 2 options, "Random Opponent" & "Challenge Friend"

There will be more buttons representing the current games the user has active. These will all reside under the "Opponent  Susan" button and will shift the other buttons below them as you start more matches.

I'm always amazed how long it takes me to create menus, but it's time well spent! I really look forward to getting this into some players hands!

Until then, its best to start practicing you spelling ability now! Letter Bank is FREE through this Wednesday! Letter Bank Download Link

Happy gaming!

Welcome to the first Monday weekly outlook. 

Today I started work on Letter Bank's multiplayer mode! Here is a little peek at the concept (although I've already flushed the details out on my end).

Very excited to get this new game mode out on the store!

Prototyping.

I'll be foregoing my indie game review today to tease my next big project.

....Amazing!

This screenshot will be the next 3 months of my life. Game on.

In the beginning.

I've stared at a blank tumblr for too long. Time for content.

Greetings!

I'm an indie developer of mobile apps.

Perpetual game development is my goal.

Blog posts will be every weekday.

Feedback/comments are gold.

My blog schedule will be rigid and is as follows.

Monday weekly outlook - This post will contain my breakdown of how I would like the week to go. And, most likely, how it will rarely happen.

Screenshot/Art Tuesdays - I'll have screenshots/art for everyone!

Twitchy Wednesdays - I will post a link to a twitch stream and I will play and commentate a game/app that I'm using for inspiration for my current project.  This will most likely be from 5pm-6pm central time.

Boring code Thursdays - Yay, fun code snippets that I will explain and be judged on!

Review Fridays - I'll review a game (most likely indie) and post said review on my tumblr.

Here are screenshots of the apps that I've made before this post.

Draft Oracle, my latest app, avaiable on Android, Amazon and very soon iOS!

Letter Bank, my second game. Out on iOS and Android.

Turret Tilt, my first game, available on iOS.

  My current project is a game and next week I'll start showing it off!
