I've decided to try to use PyGame for my entry. I have some experience with Python and PyGame looks (and I hear is) easy to use so hopefully that will help speed up my development process.

I havent done much personal programming in a long time. Due to a number of reasons it's probably been about six months since I wrote any code for myself but inside I've been starving for a reason to code again.

Maybe 4e6 will help me out with this?

Here is my idea for a 4e6 game (I'm sort of fleshing…

Just a short bit of what I've been playing with recently.

I still work on my CMS off and on and recently I've been experimenting with REST. In my old design each module had a function called GetContent() which would be passed an array of POST variables and an array of parameters coming from the URI.…

I'm going to try to create at least one game for 4E5. I think last year my project was too large artistically for my abilities and so this year I've greatly scaled back my plans for how much artwork is necessary. Hopefully this will allow me to focus on the part that I can actually do.

It's a 2D game in which the user is presented with a row of bamboo shoots of varying height. There is a panda on the bottom which can eat the shoots, one section at a time. When a sectio…

As a gift from me to you I updated a game that I originally wrote a couple of years ago. I present Herman and the Falling Rocks - now with physics!

I've taken quite a break from my journal and programming in general [sad]. I'm going to try to get back into the game by working on my CMS some more (I've made quite a few changes since the last time you saw it) and possibly writing a small game and submitting it as a showcase entry. Maybe some oth…

I havent been coding too much lately. School just burns every desire I have to work on my own projects unfortunately. This piece of code is actually one of the last things I worked on, finishing it last month.

Creating a BBCode System In PHP
Earlier posts were about the creation of a CMS and bloggin…

Way back in June I applied for a web designer job at UC Berkeley. After more than a month without reply I figured that they had forgotten about me [sad] But about two weeks ago I got an email acknowledging my application and asking me for an interview!

My interview was on Friday and they asked me to…
