Still not dead!

The Kickstarter project was accepted a little while back. I haven’t put it live yet because they strongly recommend a video presentation, which seems like a very good idea but the parts I’ve been working on so far aren’t good for it. (That thing I mentioned a while back, about not wasting time on mock-ups when I should be working on the final product… eh, live and learn!)

Still also not quite done with the Oblivion stuff, because I decided to go a few extra miles with it. Since I have no formal education or paid experience in the field, that material is essentially my resume as a game designer and as a programmer. If I’m going to be chasing funding, I want it to be something I can proudly show off; not just good, but outstanding. I’ve been promising to fill in that page here for quite some time, and I’m close, I promise. ;)

Now, the news I can’t really call bad but which makes me grumble nonetheless: a reasonably good day job has fallen into my lap. It’s full time for at least a few months. We’ll see what effect this has on my productivity; I’ll have a lot less time available, but past experience suggests I’ll be more diligent about making the best use of it as a result. Where the balance will fall remains to be seen.

    Well, congrats on the job, anyhow. The Spice is life!

    btw, couldn’t formally register. “User registration is currently not allowed.” when I click the register/login link.

    Yeah, I had to turn off open registration for the moment due to being found by the robot hordes. Anonymous posting, oddly enough, is far more secure than the registration system; but it’s limited to front-page post replies, no forum access. Upside of income: I’ll be able to pay for spam-blocking services and open that up again. For now, I’m setting them up by hand when someone asks about it. And you’ll have an email shortly. :)

    I hope you get your kickstarter presentation going soon. You’re being eclipsed by a rush of old school rpgs!

    There have been some rather large changes to the plan, which is part of why the site’s gone quiet again. I’m not sure “old-school” is an appropriate tag anymore. More on this in the future. I do appreciate you stopping by to give me a nudge, tho!

      Ooh. Tantalizing! Well, in the meantime, thanks for all the Oblivion mod updates. Very cool adjustments to Birthsigns Expanded. Cheers.
