Howdy y'all!
How was everyone's weekend?
Just got back from Bakersfield. It was my Dad's 65th birthday yesterday. He's still looking healthy and kicking it with a lot of energy, lol.
Anyways, GDC has been going this past week in San Francisco, and a lot of great stuff happened there. Wished I went myself, but of course, society is making it hard for me to find a job that will hire me with my adept skills. At least I learned Japanese for the heck of it, lol.
Moving on, I've been looking into some game development programs and decided to try them out. Before I graduated from college, I fooled around a lot on UDK (Unreal Development Kit) and 3DSMAX. Now that I see more programs being free (aside from trial-based programs *sigh*), I want to get back to trying out some new things in Animation and regular 2D/3D design. I'll have to also refer back to some programming in C++ and Java (seeing that Mobile Games are the craze this year).
For now though, I'll be trying out this 2D sprite program that a friend shared with me called "Constructor 2." When he first showed me it, he was able to show a replica of Megaman game mechanics along with interesting level development. I've always wanted to create my own fighting game, but that's a long day away. As most people would say, "it's time to go back to basics."
Well that's enough rap talk for now.
Hope you guys enjoy the rest of your day :)
