#089 - Im on Crack |
Socoder NewsletterI'm on Crack!#89 - 21st January 2011groups.google.com/group/socoder-newsletter Tell your friend to join! Hello WorldHmm.. we're still here?I was supposed to reformat the newsletter months ago, but. Well, AGameAWeek and all that. Suffice to say, plans are currently being made. They're not getting done, but they're at least being made! A list of rules, a vague set of ideas, and a bit of a plan. We'll get there! Meanwhile I'm playing around with things in the newsletter. I'm now trying to make things less Socoder centric. (eek!) That's probably not a good idea for a newsletter called "Socoder Newsletter", but sod it. There's a huge amount of dev-sites out there, and if we're honest, they really all belong together somewhere. This is as good a place as any, right!? From now on, I'm giving the indie community a great big weekly hug, no matter where it is. If you find anything interesting, dev/otherwise, let us know about it. Click, add, submit. (A link would help!) bit.ly/SN_Add Socoder.netThings That Got DoneLawandContradiction did loads of stuff this week!What did you do? socoder.net/?topic=2196 Updates take a while!Teasy updates his Robotix game, marking it's 3 yearbirthday with a nice big juicy update. socoder.net/?showcase=7250 Thought BubbleEvery so often, it's a great idea to jot thingsdown, in a vague attempt to roll the ideas around in your head. That's what Shroom Monk's done, and it's all about snowmen! socoder.net/?blogs=25403 Pax Came BaxOrion Pax is back at Socoder, and he brought hisAtari 800 with him!
