Casual game time!
|
I'm taking occasional short breaks from my next BIG project to create some smaller games, which provide a cool way to develop my drawing and animation, stop this site from stagnating, and keep my out of debt :D
You can find the first one in the games section. I'm hosting my own scores, so the system may not be perfect right now, but over the next few months I should be able to develop it into an impenetrable fortress of unhackability. It already seems to be repelling most of the usual script-kiddies, and with a few more tweaks it should remain open to only the most dedicated of asshole, on who I'll have collected enough information to ban manually! Idiot-proof.
Also, I'm starting uni in a few weeks. There isn't a link there - I'm just fleshing out my chara...

A reduction in quality
|
Yup, my site went down for the second time this month. Judging by the charts, I suspect some level of hotlinking. One way or another, I've fixed a massive hole in security (:s) so that shouldn't be a problem any more.

Some minor problems
|
Well, we had some minor bandwidth problems for a few days there. Apparrently my last game did a bit better than I expected, and the resulting traffic spike knocked out this month's bandwidth.
I've upgraded to a more suitable package, so there shouldn't be any more problems until the next release.
As far as development goes, I'm working on a few short-ish platformer race things, this time with high-score tables to get some competition going. I'm also working on a new gothic vampire/undead type game, but that's more of a background project at the moment.
For the site itself, I've been thinking of more stuff to do with the old thing. The Junk section currently has bugger all in it :S So, do you have any ideas? What would you like to see? If y...
