2005 Summary
January 6th, 2006 IRA
I’ve been so busy with the rigorousness of the recent backend update that I’ve forgotten to thank everyone for all the support during 2005. Special thanks to Valk for hosting this site during all these years, thanks to all the artists who have sent me their fan art, and thanks to everyone who keeps coming here. Your interest motivate me to keep researching and improving.
This page looks a bit empty, so let’s place here some of the past updates.
Fall of 21XX is my take of the MMX gameplay with my engine. I added some optimizations in this version, but then decided to code new things in new, lighter projects.
With the advent of Flash 8 I started to experiment with its new features in this Game Engine Demo, expanding the flexibility of my engine.
And then the Vile demo. In this one I was able to expand the model of the maps a lot, using tile properties, and giving a better visual richness. Also the melee nature of Vile’s ride armor was implemented nicely. It’s been a great fundament for further projects.
Finally I managed to fully rescan and translate to Spanish Madness in Red, source of many of my most popular characters.
Though these have been very rewarding projects, even for my professional life, I can’t help to note that I could have done a lot more if I wasn’t been reluctant to get a new PC system for my home where I create most of the content for my site. Since I was able to do all the critical PC related activities in my job, I just didn’t stop to think about it, until my old good PC finally died somewhere in October. Now things are different, I got a new PC a couple of months back, started to research again and now I’m interested in new things to try and experiment for the site. So, I really expect 2006 to be a better year for all my visitors.
On the meantime, don’t forget to keep an eye on the column of the right were the latest artwork uploaded to the gallery is always added. It’s very relieving to have all this automated, otherwise I’d go nuts with so many pages and files. Happy new year 2006.
