; Hello World


Is everybody excited? Tomorrow morning, you get to open the first door on your advent calendar! \O/YEAY\O/! Daily Chocolate Treats! Or Whiskey, or LEGO, or whatever else you might have.

There is no AGameAWeek daily game, this year.
I've been struggling to get any decent ideas flowing, recently, and nothing seemed to come together to make a silly batch of games.
Ho-hum. Maybe next year, eh?

Or maybe we can all group together, next year, and build a great big advent calendar of games together!? Bit feckin' late to be suggesting that, this year!!

; Out of Polls

We ran out of polls, twice, this week, leading to the usual "Birthday Loop" issue which preceded to wish WarOffice a happy birthday over and over and over and over again! Whoopsy!
If you've any suggestions for polls, send 'em to Jayenkai@Gmail.com
Anything goes!! With the usual disclaimer that were not having 6,000 MMO polls...!

; Mog's Magic!

Mog continues to work with Blitz3D, turning a simple landscape generator into some sort of FPS/Minecraft super thing. Vids enclosed.

; Welcome Back!

Years after the CodersWorkshop unexpected closure, folk are still stumbling across SoCoder, and realising how lovely and nostalgic it is to have two giant inexplicable sidebars clinging to a forum.
This week, BlitzCoder regular Nullmind has turned up! Hello!!

; Pictures for a Tooth

Bentosmile has a bad tooth, and needs some pennies to pay the dentist. What better way to utilise your leet artistic talents, than doing commissioned artwork to help pay for your dental work!?

; More GreenLight Arguing

SophieH argues about how useful Steam's GreenLight actually is, and how good it could actually be for Indie Devs, if Steam actually went about it, the right way.

; Trolling the Press

Somebody, somewhere, released a PR notice to PRWire, pretending to be Google. Tech Blogs went wild, without bothering to check for facts.
Blogging, the future of News. God help us all!

Sometimes, your best laid DRM plans can go a teensy bit quirky!
Best bet, don't fuck with unfixable shit!!

; Circular Impression

Newsletter regular WarOffice has sent us a great picture set of a guy recreating an image, using those little meltable circular dot things.
He adds "I should do something like this. No idea what tho!"

Happy Birthday, WarOffice!

What’s worse than the glass back on iPhone 4/4S? A badly designed glass back on Nexus 4 that breaks from temp changes.
