A couple weeks ago I stared using a Unity3D plug in called Playmaker, by Hutong Games. It’s a node based system that allows a user to visually create game play scripting. While I’m fully capable of doing this by hand, I’m always open to solutions that help me do more in less time, for less effort. So far, I’m extremely impressed with Playmaker!
I’ll be attending the CasualConnect conference again this year, but this time I’ll be promoting my new company, Well Played Games!
Send me a note if you are also attending and would like to meet up! I’m looking forward to meeting many of you.
Percheron is the first instrument I’ve built in Native Instruments Reaktor. It’s basic but solid, and has about 20 patches included. I used many core nodes in it’s construction. You can download it from the NI Reaktor User Library. If you do, I would love to hear your feedback!
It’s been a few weeks since Keystone Kitchens finished construction, and we’ve been putting things back together and painting. Everything turned out great, and we couldn’t be happier. Taking down the walls to blend the kitchen, living room and our pub/dining area has created one wonderful big space. Lighting is better, the space is visually more interesting, and it’s easy to communicate.
Monday and Tuesday saw the upper cabinets being hung, and a lot of trim and cleanup work! All the major stuff is in now, and we have been told that all the doors, detail work, and other fiddly bits will be done on Friday. Yay! The new upper cabinets have the odd and wonderful capability of appearing smaller than the old ones yet actually being a bit larger.
A late update covering the progress from last week. The big news is that counter tops have started going on, and the drawers are in! We are really pleased with the textured laminate we picked for the counter tops. The doors and drawers are looking good too.
