Blog Update! - 07/26/2013

Hey guys!

I got a new job as a Digital Media Specialist at a consulting firm and have been pretty freakin' busy getting the job. Its a great position where I get to work with a bunch of talented, passionate people and possibly make a positive change in the world.

Now, I'm not gonna stop (trying to) work on games, but I do need to get more settled into my work before I can get back to sharing my stupid little doodles, mediocre character models, and smart-ass reviews. So yes, mark my words; I will be back with more silly things to distract you with!

Until next time,
-Dave

Blog Update - 6th of July, 2013

Hey everyone!

Its been a while since I posted anything and a lot has gone on, so here is a little update for ya!

First, I finished with college for now. Got away with a 3.81 GPA on my BASc for Interactive Communication and Game Design.

Second, some bugs with Pocket Prison: Kim Jong Un got worked out by Ben and Andrew and packaged and sent off to Apple for review and hopefully approval for iOS devices.

Third, I turned 30. No more 20's for me! (Its all down hill from here...)

Fourth, I've been out off town for nearly 2 weeks now. It's a long story so I won't bore you with the details, but I was about to make my YouTube and Twitch debut for lets plays, first impressions, and 2D and 3D tutorials when my life got flipped 'n turned upside down. A couple hours of video recording and about a dozen sprites and models I had in the works seemingly poof'd out of existence when the hard drive disappeared in a pile of boxes. Couple all of this with a spotty at best internet connection while being in the middle of the woods, getting stuff back up to speed has been tedious as fuck. This one has been the biggest thorn in my side for being productive on game projects, let alone in my personal life in the last few years.

But I just wanted to let those out there who actually read this know that I haven't forgotten about you and don't count me out yet. I'm shopping around now to find a more stable and steady work environment and hopefully I can get my life back in order sooner rather than later.

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, leave them in the comments down below and I'll get back to you ASAP.

Until next time,
-Dave
