Well, it has been a while since I've posted, so I figured I oughta let you 4 people who actually read this know that I am still alive. I guess I will just rant on some XNA/CG subjects.

The first of which is ECHS BACHS a.k.a. Archor Games. This particular member of XNA seems to think that a reskinning of a sample that Microsoft published is worthy of being put up on Community Games and making him money. Though this post is a bit late (it seems he pulled his "games" down), I imagine there will be more like him and I suggest anyone who will be buying games from the CG platform to be weary. I will try to post about these Game Developer Imposters, so you can keep up with the pile of crap, ignore it, and buy good games.

So, it looks like Cubage is going to be re-released. It will be released in the UK, and have a minor overhaul. A couple new features include: customizable settings, various themes, two control schemes, a main-menu help screen, and skippable logo/credits. The release changes are trivial and mostly cosmetic. The big thing is just that the Brits will have a chance to play with a digital cube.

Minesweeper is hitting a bit of a snag. I have a lot of issues to fix and very little time to fix them. I am still hoping to have it out by the Holidays though.

And I still have two unannounced projects I am working on. Expect one (a multiplayer-party-puzzle-logic game) before the end of January and the other (A full 3D battle game) before the end of March.

And, finally, for those of you who didn't notice, I added forums to the FV Productions site. http://www.fvproductions.org/forums
Join up! I will have a link from the main site soon.
