Assembly’06 will be held from 3rd to 6th August. Continuing with my yearly tradition, I’ll be there once again. This year I will be giving a seminar speech on The Neglected Art of Fixed Point Arithmetic. Feel free to come and say hi to me if you will be at the event! I’ll probably also try to create a game for the game development competition, although my work on that is still in its early stages.
8th Ludum Dare results for Lone Warrior
We finally got the results from the 8th Ludum Dare 48h game development competition. I’m glad to tell you that my creation, Lone Warrior, got 3rd place in three categories: Production, Graphics and Sound, with voting scores of 4.13, 4.09 and 3.73! (respectively, out of 5.00)
8th Ludum Dare – Lone Warrior

The Ludum Dare 48h game development competition was held again last weekend, for the 8th time. The theme was “Swarms”, and my entry is downloadable here: Lone Warrior (WIN32). Yep, you guessed it right beforehand, I continued with my warrior theme of naming my 48h game compo entries. :-)
Back from GDC 2006

I finally returned back to Finland from my trip to California for GDC and some vacation time. The conference was great. By chance I even spotted Stuntcar Extreme running on MS Windows Mobile stand at the expo area, as you can see from the right. Vacation time after the conference was great as well, except for the fact that it was the rainiest March in California in 150 years! (And apparently they just didn’t have statistics for longer period than that.) So I got to see only a few glimpses of the sun.
