  1. Windows 8 - First Impressions

    Now, as you may/may not be aware, windows 8 is now in its public infancy - early after windows 7 and there is a very good reason for that. Once you take a look at the base of the UI you find that it seems to have its roots sturdily sunk into Windows phone 7, the future as MS called it.

    Now, I have an Acer Aspire 1425p, (and I might get the bitter truth out there early) with a capacitative multi touch screen on which to run this startmenu-less OS - but I doubt many others do . Further, ...

  2. Recent development

    Now, the Ludum Dare has my thanks for this next bit in helping me realize once again how fun and addicting coding can be at its best - just the sheer spirit behind Ludumdare lead me to overhaul a lot of ideas and reconsider some concepts that I'd once deemed useless or unfeasible.

  3. Chat, the Annual & Tweaking the PGD Site

    Hello everyone!

    AJAX Chat

    It's been some time, but I've finally gotten around to writing a new blog about what's going on in the community.

This will allow Pascal programmers and game programmers that use Pascal or Object Pascal to have a place that they can hang out and chat with other like-minded programmers ...
  4. PGD Mini Compo - Day 1 progress

    So, the PGD mini compos number 1 (or shall we say 0 in programmer talk ?) finally got underway...

    As a rule of thumb, I'll most likely be posting quite often on progress and etc related to my game entry - since its a habbit I got into during the LD20 and now can't get rid of it...

  5. PGD Mini Compo - Are you ready?

    As luck would have it, its still exam week (or more appropriately exam month ) and as with all things in life, it all has to happen at the same time...

    Oh well. Things look better than Ludum Dare #20 on my end in the run up for the PGD Mini Compo (we need a cool acronym for this one, hit me up on the comments with any ideas ). Translation: Things are better than 'I think it works... Well enough'. Its a phenomenon highlighted by my first Ludum Dare entry. Things might work very well ...
