Updates

I know! I know I neglect this blog more than is fair but I'm just so busy! Anyway, here's some info on The GODS are DEAD?! We finished the game and were very happy with the results, we couldn't have been more proud. The game made it into Game Fest for the competition and while we didn't place in the top five, I feel like we did very well. You can find out more about the game or download and try it for yourself here: The GODS are DEAD?!

Other than that I've been keeping busy by playing games, working, and doing some DC sight seeing with my wonderful girlfriend. Next semester will be more fun and games (literally, there will be more games) and I will start writing my thesis about sexism and the portrayal of women in video games. I thought this would be an interesting topic, and it is something I feel strongly about. BUT, there will be more about that next year and as long as it's allowed by RPI ( I don't see why it wouldn't be) I'll port the entire thing right here for your reading pleasure. Until school starts though I hope to start working on some Skyrim mods, maybe some that are pretty cool. I have little to no experience with modding games, but I think this would be a good one to start with. Also I don't know what everyone knows about it, but the Source Film Maker looks AMAZING, and when I get a beta invite I would love to make some TF2 films of my own. Otherwise I'll try to update this more, and let you know when I make anything new, until then, play some Dawngaurd, and be excited for Black Ops 2.
