Hey everyone!
Not much from my side of the equation today, but mark wrote up a good long artist update, and I've got a (un-narrated) movie showcasing my sideproject's physics.
Without further ado, here's Mark's update:

I think I've officially hit my first programmers block for Axis Shift this week. No matter how hard I try I just can't bring myself to work on the damn thing. I always want to at school, but as soon as I get home and start coding, my enthusiasm drops to the floor. I guess these thin…

Well today Mark and I had our first game of Axis Shift! From a technical point of view it was a great success, but from a "funness" perspective it was a little iffy, there were too many little bugs for the game to be that fun.

Not much of an update today. All I did today was to modify the ship definition file format to include the special actions that ship can perform. The actions we have so far are:
Launching Fighters
Launching Bombers
Deploying Mines
Deploying Sensor Buoys
Deploying Sensor Decoys
