Current Direction

Blitzmax, Monkey, Monkey2, Games
I spend quite some hours working with Monkey 2. I encounted two bugs. On my two laptops I can currently only use 4 bits colors. And after intalling Emscripten I got a message in the first thing I compiled that there is a memory error.

BlitzMax is maybe going to be released on steam in the near future. I might start to learn how to use that. I will then start to maintain a github example reposit for it.

I noticed that there is a award site for Github where you can view your rank with the languages you use. I will keep adding/creating more code to my github reposits and see if I can level up

Drawing/Art
I spend quite some hours this year drawing. I still have not gotten a lot better. I still have trouble with shading/Lighting and shape ect.. Animation is something that I have not done this year at all. I would need to spend hundreds of hours to get better.

Game projects :
I still want to create a action rpg platformer. I am currently evaluating Monkey 2 to see if I will start to create code for this project. Monkey 2 is not finished yet so it might take months before it gets useable enough. But it might be useable already for larger projects. I have not figured out yet how to update monkey trough its github reposit.

Music :
I need to save enough money to buy a new faster ipad. I am looking at Ipad 4 and Ipad Pro. Currently I can only use 4 channels per song with gadget. On the pc I am getting better at using the piano roll editor. I found more good instruments. (Roland groove synth and rgc Square 1) I now have quality instruments for orchestral and electronic music styles.

Hardware :
My high end laptop is 3 years old. It still works but it is missing two keys. I am currently waiting until the next generation of low end nvidia video cards get released. Might take a few months. The 1050ti described to be as fast as the 970m.

 		You don't need to wait for BMax to appear on Steam, just grab it from the BMax site. It's free! \o/yeay\o/

Someone recently suggested the iOS App "Caustic"... it.. works, I suppose.
But I'm too comfortable with KORG Gadget to change!!

 		I had not noticed Caustic yet. I am watching video's of it now. Seems like it is useable. Black friday is in a couple of days. Standard it says it is 10 bucks. Not expensive at all.
