ok I needed this second post cus I'm attaching something. I downloaded a free program called DogWaffle and I'm learning how to use it... it doesn't have cut and paste and nice things I have in MSPaint, so I load up both programs and load them up when I need something edited.
This character hasn't been thought up before or isn't any main character, but I see it as one man in army in our game. It's just showing some atmosphere. Even though I don't like it and I won't stick in in my game, I've still done something towards it.
I also read 'Masters Of Doom' which tells how John Romero and John Carmack went through life and developed Doom with the friends they made along the way in software companies with all the terrible times included (leaving jobs and firing people). Great book, read it over again when I'm doing nothing on my game if I can.
I have lately stopped producing as much work as I did for a game and start watching/playing other things so it's best if you use this time playing and watching things that strictly relate to your game. I also can't even load up Classic and write small programs to practice loops or make the map editor or anything so I'm just in the same bag as you. I'll make my game first off corse and get ahead of you AHAH
yeah you'll see my game released and you'll still be looking at a 3 minute story intro on your game.. yeah yeah yeah!
the view tab btw. I hope it opens a jpeg pic up .
