GC Website

Mmmm! Takua108, Arcalyth, and I (though I've been doing the least work.. at least since I completed the design) have been workin very hard on the new GameCave Website… The same design most of you guys hated, regardless of your comments. HOWEVER, I did make the design smaller (to fit 800X600 resolutions nicely), because the other damn design didn't even fit 1024X768.

It's going to be sweet. We'll be working a proper forum, probably phpBB, that will fit nicely into the website.You can also manage/track servers registered for Conflict: Online (kind of a considering concept still), and any other online games we make. Though, the login system is mainly used for GC Members to be able to post WIP updates, creations, blogs for their profile, etc.

Aside from the GC Website, I've been working on Conflict: Online too (who would've guessed?)… Actually, wait. I *haven't* been working on CO. Because it's been sent off to Arcalyth and CAMD, and it's going to be ripped apart and pieced back together until it's a sweet, online-playable, game. Then it'll go back to me and i'll encrypt the game to death to stop h4x0r!ng (though it'll never be stopped I guess), optimizing the game, and filling in gaps. Finally, we'll implement the sound, all the frontend stuff, and a final check (which could take days) will be done, before we release the final game. Somewhere before then we will be releasing a demo, but you can't be sure of when that'll be, or if it'll be before the final (v1.0).

I planned a LAN Party this weekend! Ah man, I'm not too much of a geek, in the fact I don't have LAN Parties all the time; I have one maybe 4 times a year. The problem is, I rarely play games (except for inspiration), yet when I finally get my hands on Call of Duty at a LAN Party, I pwn everyone. Lucky we're going to be playin FlatOut 2 and AOE III too. Ah man, geeky times, geeky times. So yeah, me and my brother'll be against each other, then the other 4 n00bs can pick a team.

Speaking of my brother, check out his podcast! 2 more episdoes (3 in total): www.pacificrock.com.au/voices. Make sure you listen to them all in order if you've yet to hear the first one. Very cool.

LAN parties FTW!

The site is looking better too, though I still think the big G logo could afford to be downsized a bit. I'm still running at 1024x768 though, so maybe it's just me. [:P]

Thanks FF; I might just do that. Still, im' playing around with various ways of implementing more colours… But, nothing has looked good as yet. Adam (takua108) had a look at other sites with purple design,s most of them were just purple and white, with less white than this design. We'll figure something out.

Thanks FF? So you didn't find any value in my criticisms then. Nevermind.

That kind of implies that I have appreciated your comments and am taking it on-board. Thankyou also.
