This semester I have a game project to complete, and I'm trying to come up with an idea for a tool that I can develop within these 15 weeks or so. Who knows, the tool could actually end up helping you some day. So if you need something, be sure to highlight it here or by tossing me an e-mail.

Hey! Just a reminder. If you're curious to see GDC and hear about it, I'll be writing about this event during my evening time. I've already thrown up yesterday (when I got here) and today, with some pictures. So in an effort not to double post the same content, I'll post a link.
Enjoy. Any questio…

The Game Developers Conference is early this year. Which, sort of hurts me since it isn't during spring break. But I won't be letting that distract me. This will be my first time attending a game development conference and I'm pretty excited. I spoke with an instructor here that has gone to the …

I started to work on my distributed network game a few days ago. Since then, I've basically got the foundation for the graphics system in place, and am now working to get the input system in place 100%. The input system is about 60% complete, and it shouldn't take much longer to piece together th…

So, since I can't get in touch with gamedev.net's billing support for a refund, I might as well use this beast to advertise my new blog!
Nothing special, just a random blog to check during your day, or week. ;)

Whoah, where did the time go?
I could use an internship for the summer of 2008? Anybody, that knows anybody, that knows anybody- feel free to get in touch.

In the midst of a summer semester and working my ass off to do really well in this Finance course I am taking, I've got most of a personal website developed.
Feel free to take a peek. Any feedback would be welcomed. Specifically, how easy it feels for a person to move around the site to gauge my …

What a wild semester...
The SemesterI worked on a literature review on 'Violence in Video Game Entertainment' that took a good portion of my time. The entire goal of the paper was to give parents, which might not be avid game players, an understanding of violent material in video game technology. …

So, not to long ago, a great buddy of mine helped me get my own domain space. I'm currently building a site that will plop down at this url: www.david-mcgraw.com. I'll be using it for various purposes, but the main reason for it is that I wanted my own domain for a 'online' portfolio space - in the…

So, I'm in a Game Design course here at the University... Let's just say, the Game Development here is pretty, 'Up and coming", to say the least. It's been about 2 years and there are 2 classes devoted to gaming. A Game Design course, and a Game Programming course. I really support the coming of th…

So... Raymond showed me this experiment... This, Great Games Experiment and now i'm hooked. I never got into this 'Myspace' thing, not my cup of tea... Couldn't get in this 'Facebook' thing, much, bleh... But, a game focused community like this looks amazing. Wooo, i'm addicted. Thanks Raymond.

Well, hell. I was hoping to have something good to share, but, I don't. Talk about busy, busy, busy. The christmas spirit is wearing down, finally, but, right around the corner we have new years. Oh well.

So, I never thought I'd do it. But, I did and I feel pretty darn good from going through the experience.
What experience is this?
Having the satisfaction of sitting at my local Wal-mart for hours, holding spot number 9 of 9 for the Nintendo Wii! The entire experience was quite an experience to add t…

How is it in journal land this evening (or morning, afternoon) for you? Hope all is well and enjoy your Thursday. ;)

Well, It's been quite some time since I slung any words in this journal. Sadly, Other than my classes, I haven't been doing any coding.

Undoubtedly, race issues plague this country like none other. I, for one, never had the opportunity to grow up in a cultural diverse city since I live in Kansas. We may have had 3 - 5 black kids that went to my HS, no Latinos or Asians... It's pretty crazy.

Design Document
This morning I started up on the design document for Spherion and so far its coming out well. I can't stress how much it has helped to write a story out on digital paper. Even if you are not an excellent writer, writing a story out before you start writing up the design document can…

I have completed the story for Spherion and everything is going really well. I've got some great quests planned and some very chaotic moments in the story that I hope plays out well in the production of the game. There is one shocker that may just lead you to believe that will be completely doomed,…

Well, Not a whole lot going on aside from the normal school stuff. I did work on Spherion for awhile and ended up finishing another part and a half. That leaves me with a little less than a half to write.
