Once again life got in the way and I've post-poned this for much too long! So here is my semi-monthly blog post. Get ready, this is a long post.
Summer is approaching and so is the end of my school year. With this brings a lot of new changes, first one being is my departure of Bloodbath Software. We had various views and outlooks on our projects and couldn't come to an agreement. So I have left and will no longer be a part of development on Overturn. I wish luck to the rest of the Bloodbath team and hope their projects go well. In spite of this I have been accepted to Dethklan Games(creators of the great Half-Screwed). I know this is a big change but I feel overall happy with my decision and I won't disappoint.
*Note: Under my projects page I will be puting Overturn under my past works section.
WON Doctors was started after this post, and it left quite a nasty taste in many people's mouth upon watching it. Reflecting back at the video I released, I should havve done a more quality job. For one, I did not have any logo at the time or any other indicators of the production. The major flaw, however, was how I narrated and played through Cry of Fear. I didn't talk very loud or clear, often repeating words and not explaining in full detail. In my defense, it was a pilot and a playthrough(this doesn't excuse anything though). You'll see a further explanation and review of Cry of Fear and the team behind it in my CoF 1.2 review coming sometime this year. I can say this, lessons learned: Don't rush into a video just to get it out there first, don't ever do another playthrough(they do get rather tiresome don't they?), have better production quality, and most importantly, double check if the issues experienced are just myself or global. I apologize for any wrong information I said in the video, one or two things were incorrect. So again, expect a review of CoF and the first episode of WON Doctors.
Qreate, developed by eukos and with some additional maps by myself, is a small sandbox mod for Quake that eukos had lying around and decided to release it to the public. Currently on Alpha 0.5 and can be downloaded off of ModDB or my site. *Note to Darkplace users: Please type the following in console upon starting the mod, "exec quake.rc". If any other issues occur with any other Quake engine, please let us know. Thanks.
Last note, and I can't believe I'm still talking about it months later myself, Streetlevel did loose MOTM on TWHL. Released in late January(probably just a bit of bad timing) I lost out to hlife_hotdog's Apartment X2. Not a bad map per say and pretty nice for a small little remake. It's worth a try at least, I have some different thoughts about it winning MOTM but fair is fair and congrats hotdog!
That's it for this blog post. Be sure to check out the fabulous projects from OldTimes Software and Dethklan Games!
