Oh hey this place didn't explode.

Hey, if you don't know who I am, piss off. I'm Kenon.

Despite this being a blog wrote on April Fool's day, I actually feel really inspired. I've been setting goals for myself for the past few months and succeeding them, and so I thought of a small little goal to try to do.

So I thought I would come back and ask you to help me decide.

I have one of two choices here.

1. I kinda want to make PLatformed still. I have all of my design docs, and I want to see if I can actually program. Level design takes me like no time whatsoever, and I have probably 600 pages lying around of sketches I had for Frell, Winshar, Argonia, ect.

2. Make a tf2 level, spurring from my old, abandoned ctf_veritas. I really feel like I could do something with it.

Oh, and hey everyone. What's up.

If I do PLatformed, I'll work hard on it and try to get a demo up whenever the hell I can soon.

I like making source maps, it's fun.

Great to see you again

Mapping in source is a total bitch in the end. Takes too damn long to get a quality product. Plus optimization is a major concern, and not in the sense of "how does one point see an area", more as "How many other rectangular prisms can be seen into from the one you are in, and why don't we calculate this based on your current occupation and then draw every single one without a culling operator depending on what you can see into potentially?

tbh total bitch of a thing to do.

Actually, this place did explode. No one comes here anymore.

Seriously, give me the design documents for Platformed and I will make your fucking game for you.

@Kenon's comment: True true, but the fact that you can do so much with it is what makes it exciting.

So after some deliberation and whatnot, I have decided to work on PLatformed. Production begins soon.

PLatformed will be finished when I finish v3.

So fucking finish it, Arcalyth, so Kenon will finish PLatformed and then we'll all be finished because our minds will explode from trying to comprehend the fact that somehow both v3 and PLatformed were miraculously finished.

That would cause the world to end. Both v3 and PLatformed… jeesus
