College

Here I am again - writing an entry into the blog after quite some time of silence. Many things have happened and changed during this time - including my game projects.

As you may already know, I started my college education two weeks ago. My education is 5 years Master of Sciences in Computer Game and Program Development. For that, I have moved to a whole new city.

The Side World project therefore has been put to a stop, hence my teammate is now 400km away from me. The project wasn't really moving on either - I got the physics working, but didn't find the inspiration to fix anything more than that since then. Unless I find some inspiration to continue Side World and/or find a convenient way for working in a team of two over internet - the project remains frozen.

Ok, this was the boring part of the post, I guess. Now comes the more fun part: as a part of a course at the college, we've made a game as an exercise and last night I created another game for my examination (we have small examinations each 3 weeks, so expect more games to be documented ^^).

The exercise was to create an aquarium - a simple game containing a background, a few non-animated fishes, a simple auto-pilot and a score-counting. On top of it, we added special score options: double-bite, tripple-bite and awesome multi-bite. It's as simple as eating up more than one fish within like 0.5 seconds to get these special scores ^^

The examination game is a WhackTheRabbit - a simple WhackTheMole clone, simplified to only 3 holes in a row. Yeah, guess it was that simple to explain it :D

I might upload some screenshots and maybe even the games themselves later on. ;)
