Having not been able to focus on programming of late, and needing to recieve a pay cheque, I have been looking around for some templates for Requirement Specifications, and Design Documents. If I produce a couple of these, I should be able convince work that I am doing something :).

Looking back on when I was at school, I used to be so much brighter than I am now. Even at uni, I was more energetic and variable than I currently find myself. Perhaps, it is the life sapping nature of work that is affecting me in this way. Or maybe, it is that I am getting older, or my diet, or ex…

This post is not Game Development related. If you are looking for some pearls of wisdom, I have none to offer.
I hate work, it's boring. No offence to the company that I am working for, they are all great people. The work is so dry and unintersting, and being the only programmer in a company of quan…

The last few months has been a time with much reflection for me. I have decided that going after a game development job isn't for me, as I would rather earn a decent income (/e deploys flameshield).

I've been working some on the "HexWars" game that I mentioned a few months ago, and have come up with a (nearly) playable version. Before I put out a version for y'all to play there are a few things that I want to finish off. One of those things is a computer player.

It's amainsing how when things are going well for you, they can suddenly take a turn for the worst. Perhaps it's karma or something, but sometimes things just go terribly wrong and knock you off your feet. Since my last post both the best event and worst event of my life so far have occured.

This week has mainly been involved with team member collections. We have had a few responses to the previous post that I made, unfortunately, there are too many programmers interested, so we will have to choose between them.

Ok, So giving up WoW actually worked (I knew it would). Even after two days the results are in. I have now managed to do the following:
* Contact previous team members. We now have the sound guy from the last project.
* Contact friends from Uni. Nothing on that front, but my friends have friends. Sti…

Well, this week went spectacularly. So far this week, I have not managed to post any "looking for new team members" messages.
Pretty much the only thing that I -have- managed to do is update my website. It now looks a whole lot nicer, and I can put in dynamic content. I will attempt to get a listin…

So, I'm putting a team togeather piece by piece. I have already got the artist from my previous project to sign on, and will be looking for one more programmer, and one more artist (although more people may also be a good thing).
I am planning to make the approach (to perspective teammates) that the…

This would be my first ever entry in my first ever blog. Thought it would be a good idear to keep track of my experiences and share them with the world. Not that I think the world cares really.
Anyways, I guess it would be a good time to explain what I hope to achieve through this log, and perhaps …
