Report RSS Site updates! Plus Overturn update!

It's been a while hasn't it? The biggest change you may be noticing is that my old blog is gone! Well, get some popcorn and a drink and I'll tell you all about the recent changes.


My Site has been through some radical changes, and I'm happy to announce what may be my final design of mod pages, comments and of course my blog:



Above is the brand new design for the projects page! While the layout hasn't changed much, the code was cleaned up (tons of organized classes) and colors were added to make it more alive.

In addition to this, I've also made preview headers when browsing mods/maps also use their animated counterparts on mouse hover. This feature is still work in progress, as I have to figure out how to make it stop from loading the gifs when you load the page itself and to add animated headers to others that don't have them.


Finally, the new comment system. While I used Disqus (which is a great service I'd recommend to anyone) since February, I decided to tap into Google's new G+ Comment system. I was very satisfied with how it works, with features such as sharing each post with your G+ and showing those who +1'd the page. Please note: This is uses an unofficial method to do this. Google's API does not support comments on third party websites yet, so it may be subject to change or not work at all anymore (if this happens I will move back to Disqus). It does not also support anonymous posts (yet). Hopefully as time goes on, Google will update this service to include this feature. Have fun! And feel free to follow me on Google+.



Now, once again, I'm sure you're all wondering about Overturn. Well progress has been slow but advancing. Right now we are really just waiting for the code to be finished, and when that's all said and done we'll have the demo shipped out and ready for everyone to play! I hope we can see a release by the end of June.



That's it for this blog post. Be sure to check out Bloodbath Softworks and Dethklan Games!
