XNA-UK Refresh and exciting new look

by Darkside on Jul.22, 2010, under News, Website, XNA, xp7dev

Well it has been a while since any of us have posted here, but rest assured we are very much still alive and active in the XNA space.

One of the major piece of works we have done recently is to move and upgrade the XNA-UK site, One of the main hubs in the XNA game space and the best place to meet likeminded people to make games, share ideas and get help.

One of the other signature pieces of the site it to bring devs / artists and testers / designers together in one place.

Come and check it out here:

Hi and Howdy

by Darkside on Jan.12, 2009, under News

As Dark Omen Games newest member I’d Like to introduce myself a bit.

First, I’d also like to thank Chr0n1x for the new site, looks a lot more fresh and invigorating, erm , erm, erm, I’d also like to that those other people who didn’t create the site, Dave “DaphydtheBard” Donner, Charles “RandomChaos” Humphrey, oh, oh and that other one I can’t remember, Oh, Angelina Jolie. No it’s Jeremy Cook.

(Thanks to Kate “Blonde” Winslet, for the inspiration there :-)   )

About me, you might as well read the first post in my new blog over at Blogspot, as I’m a bit tired now after writing all that.

As for the future, things are really looking up in Dark Omen Games and I’m really excited about the projects my peers have got running.  I’ll be helping out with design reviews and some 3D modeling when called for.

As for my own projects, I’m bringing back an old game of mine called Hack-1 (from back in the beta XNA days), with hopefully a fresh new look and a change in direction.  Charles has this crazy idea on how to network the game, so we’ll see what comes of that!

Right that’s my blog rant for the day over, here’s hoping for more of the same in months to come.

As a little sneak preview, Charles has already made great progress on his new game project, which is a great manic free for all game with lots of sneaky tactics to founder your opponents.  I’m really excited about what I’ve seen so far.  I’ll see if I can give him a nudge to get a tech preview done!
