Dev Rampage - Adventures in coding and sleep depravation

Image
Ahoy all! Mister Tom Bones, he's always rattlin'!      Below is a daily account of our adventures during our ten-day game development sprint. Things may be confusing and/or poetic, but that's what a lack of sleep and too many energy drinks will do for you. Day Zero      Old friends saying hello rarely say much, there is a knowledge of decades and the core of the person. A head nod of greeting and we are off. We plan our expedition loosely, knowing that every step forwards can break progress behind us. But first, we must find comfortable and quality accommodations. My initial scouting had found what was a promising option, but upon closer inspection, the fruits were unripe and the others distasteful. We find ourselves at a fine establishment for tacos through a brief detour. It all seems so simple Day one           As we set upon our quest for fame, fortune, and functional code we find ourselves in a land once familiar to us but foreign as well. Our own footprints and those

New names, & old faces

     Ahoy sky-pirates and aeronautic adventures! While we are working towards our new big phase before we refactor and then do a big art update we wanted to share some business news. We have an official name for the game and have established a new company just for this project!      We have finished setting up our new game development company. We have named it:         trumpets playing in the distance RXR Games Studio!      R and R stands for Russ and Rock, or Rock and Russ, depending upon who's asking. Potential Games Studios will still be around for smaller projects, not associated with this effort.      This new game studio will allow Russ and I to better own the work we do together. Also, it will help us get a publisher! Fingers crossed      Speaking of new titles we'll be working under. We`re ready to announce the proper name of the game! You didn't really think we were gonna leave this game called Project Airbags, did you? We don't even have blimps or zeppelins
