I am happy to announce that Nebulon has passed the peer review process for XBOX LIVE Community Games and is now available for purchase in the territories where XBLCG is available.

The game costs 200 Microsoft Points, and is a lot of fun. (As the Peer Reviewers have told us) This has been a great learning experience for Dark Omen Games, and we are happy to see that Nebulon is the first game from DOG to make it to XBLCG.

DaphydTheBard did a great job with the game, as the peer reviewers have told us, and we hope that you will check out the game and support us to continue developing for what will soon be called XBOX LIVE Indies.

Buy and Download the game from XBOX LIVE Marketplace.

“This game was classified by the community with the following category scores – Violence=0/3, Sex=0/3, Mature Content=0/3. Old School Arcade Action for the 21st Century! Featuring adaptive gameplay, a host of awesome weaponry, stunning effects and a thumping soundtrack to match. Get those trigger fingers ready – this is Retro as it was meant to be played…”

New Domain

I am happy to announce that http://darkomengames.co.uk now points to this website. The old link will still work fine, however all links on this website except those written in blog posts will have changed to use the new domain. Feel free to update your RSS readers and/or bookmarks to reflect this change, however don’t worry if you forget, there should not be any major problems.

This change was recent and as such the domain may still be propagating over the internet, please be patient, everything should be fine by the weekend.

Recent technical issues

Hi everyone,

Recently this blog gave a HTTP 500 Internal server error to anyone trying to view it. After speaking with my hosting company and a bit of debugging, I have fixed the issue and all is fine now.

The issue appears to have been with the WordPress Secret Key that you generate for the configuration. I am not sure why, but it caused this issue after working fine for a while, however generating a new one fixed it all up.

If you notice any more issues, feel free to contact me through my blog (http://mquandt.com/blog) or this blog.

New Site

Welcome to 2009, and the new blog. After a bit of a mess up with the old blog software, and the restrictions imposed on the free version, we at Dark Omen Games agreed to start again with different software, and this time do it right. So I present the new blog, powered by WordPress.

We are just finishing setting up, so expect the theme to change as we try to find something that fits, and hopefully with the new year, we can post more about what DOG is up to. Don’t forget to update your RSS, or if you are new to us, add us. You can find the RSS through the handy button near the top of the page.

On behalf of the rest of the team, welcome to the new site, and a new year for game development with Dark Omen Games.
