Where I've been and where I'm headed

So I was pretty active last winter generating a lot of content related to game development and impactJS. In the spring a lot of things happened in both my personal life and in my day job (that pays the rent). They were mostly all great things but they also took a large amount of my time away from working on games, game development and all my other side projects.

With fall approaching and things calming down a little I plan on getting back into streaming and working on my entry for IGF due in October. Consider this a "season 2" announcement. After winter I will most likely take a break from producing content online during the spring and summer of 2014 and have another reprise into streaming and working on independent projects that fall/winter as well.

Thanks a ton for all the support, comments and subscriptions during the first run and look forward for things to come!

Sunday Open Game Dev!

When is it?

Sundays 1pm-4pm

I'm making a game live on http://twitch.tv/tiger_j streaming the process and interacting with the live chat! Each week I will progress further on a html5 game written in javascript using the impactjs framework and other available tools/technologies! If you interested in how games are made or are experienced in making them and want to contribute to the community please join me every weekend!

I have made a special page on this blog to list a lot of resources and information for each episode.
