New Blog!

I decided to create a new blog for my game related stuff, the old one can be found here if you're interested of reading back in time.

From now on the blog is restricted to game development related info, this means it's not guaranteed anymore that I will keep making blog entries daily, it also means that the entries will be a lot shorter than in the past and written at the end of the day instead of over the day, if you like reading these walls of text I write about my not so eventful life then the DeviantART non-featured journals is where I dump all that now.

I'm writing both my DA journals and this blog for myself simply to keep track of what I'm doing. This applies in particular to the DA journals now since I dump a lot of non-related info in there.

The Wiki is still outdated, I will update it once I intially made it just to keep track of my work, but now that I have articy: draft I can store it's easier for me to store that info locally. I will however update the wiki on the occasions where I have something solid to put there, it's just not worth the effort to update it every day with info that could change later.

Anyways today (as art day) I only had to work on game development for 1 hour, I'm still working on my first digital art piece (on and off for 5 days now) and to tlel the truth that is at this moment taking higher priority than game development; it is probably the single most important and meaningful work of art I will ever draw as it represents how far I've come in my first month as an artist and will ultimately help me decide if art is something I should pursue or not, when that piece of art is finished I will be focusing 50/50 on game development and that art piece.

Today I wrote some of the storyline I thought up over the past month down, it's pretty solid so I've decided how the prologue of my first game will be from start to finish, all I have to do is get a few names down (one town name, and names of several characters) and then write the dialogues, as well as start working on chapter one. Since tomorrow is game dev day I will be putting at least 3 hours into doing that tomorrow. Unfortunately though I can't go spoiling the storylines too much in here, so I can only write how much I've written in here rather than actually what I wrote (unless I decide there's an occasion to give a snippet of story in here)

My main game development days are tusedays and thursdays, so I am guaranteed to make a blog entry in here on these days (for now at least) but theres a chance I'll work on all other days as well, with the exception of sunday which is a convenient day to take a break from both art and game development, and I think I won't work much on saturdays either. But mondays, wednesdays and fridays are pretty much unpredictable where I am dedicated to working 1 hour on game development but 3 on art; how I spend the rest of the ours of these days is up to me and I could end up working hard on game development on these days, or just for that 1 minimal hour.

Thats it for todays entry, thanks for reading :)
