Why does my blog all of a sudden have 9000 hits?

Posted by Rusky on Feb. 10, 2011, 2:40 p.m.

Or is that not accurate? (edit: apparently it's 9000 for my page, not any single blog, this one says 0… that makes a little more sense)

V3's been out long enough that I'm starting to see it without laughing, and I'm bored enough now to write a post.

So, since my last blog two and a half years ago, Enigma progressed to what you all know about it now pretty much without anything from me but trolling, and Stadt-Magie morphed into Distoban and became virtually a one-man project by someone who is not me. It's pretty cool looking now though.

What have I done besides let projects die or move on without me? Make my own stuff, of course! I might get around to submitting it here, but I think a higher priority is to finish the project I'm on right now, which has a deadline, and to get my own site (www.abubalay.com) working again.

My best projects are, as always, done for contests. I have two and a third games for the unfortunately-named Technology Student Association, the second two of which are potentially good ideas but not really finished enough. My favorite is for a game-in-a-day competition I entered at a gaming convention with my brother.

Besides games, I've experimented with my server setup- it runs a minimal Debian install now, written some kernel-level code, thought about language design and made progress on a game engine/tool. That last bit is intended to be a whole game development stack, usable at every level, from the (at least initially) C++ engine through a scripting language and environment to a Game Maker/Construct/Stencyl-like tool.

I've also decided that 90% of my past blogs are ridiculous and they make me cry.

Hey, sup. I knew you. Nice to see you again.

What are the chances of you coming back to this blog in a few years then deciding that this one too is ridiculous, shedding the tears of maturity?

In any case, I'd love to see the contest games you're talking about.

@thernz: about 137% :)

I'm actively updating a thread about my latest competition game on RoboSquid and I should be able to upload the rest later today.

Also, I kind of wish v3 would scroll the page down to the submitted comment rather than just dropping me at the top.
