Game Release
I set this blog up (goes back a page to check).. almost 3 years ago!? in hopes that someday I would be ready to release my own game. Not for money but as a self achievement kinda thing.. something to be proud of.. You know!
So over last xmas I decided to give it another go, but this time in ios. Luckily I came across a project called cocos2d-x, a game engine written in c++ which deploys mobile games across android, ios, windows, and many more platforms. So with my modest knowledge of c++ and my rusty art skills, I gave it a shot. Its now march, and I'm pleased to say its come a long way.
The game is inspired by, well my inspirations, minecraft, space, sci-fi and some tron-like graphics. The idea is simple. Your in a 2d world made up of blocks, some blocks fly, some shoot lasers, e.t.c., anyway you can put these blocks together to build a flying shooting tank, or one that just slides along the ground.. The game play is still up in the air, I may introduce characters which can also build creations to launch attacks on the player.
So thats where the game's at now. I'm hoping to release it to the ios store/ android store mid/late april after I've had a few friends try it out first :)
More updates to come.. I promise ;)

Changes
Will be posting the updated version of Rockofv early Jan. This will be significantly different to the demo up at the moment as I plan to incorporate characters as well as races and challenges. I may also publish a 2d arty game I have been working on but will only release that when it is near finished.
