At long last I come up for air. With apologies to CS readers, here's what's been happening. Oh, but first a little explanation of the little shield to the left.
I have mentioned an effort to make this site a bit more pleasing to the eye, even if it is to the geeky eye. The "power up" you see represents a Gencore shield generator that you can acquire in Tyrian, the first game I ever worked on with Jason Emery and the great Daniel Cook (aka "Danc"). No doubt plenty of you have already heard the Tyrian Jukebox posted earlier. Danc of course runs Lost Garden and recently found most of Tyrian's tileset from this game we developed over 12 years ago, and I will be using quite a few of them to start each update in a "bullet" fashion of some sort.
First, my oldest and best friend Aaron Rudkin was married yesterday. It was a great ceremony, a great reception and my best wishes to both of them for a long, happy life, etc. etc.. Aaron has an uncanny sense of humor, enjoying both sides of the coin from Cracking Up to Yes, Minister. We've enjoyed many a day of drinking and discussion of life, love and above all, making fun of films and sitcoms.
Now that the wedding is over there is a great deal more to report. Here's what I'm working on at present:
Neverwinter Nights 2 Expansion Pack: Mask of the Betrayer
Aliens
And various other things I can't talk about, but the gist of it is that the buck stops with me, and I love it. I'm working very hard (hence the lack of posts) but am given trust and responsibility to do the job properly rather than paranoia and ego waltzing through the development process to create drama every day, the way I have experienced in various other organizations. Obsidian is a fantastic place to work and I hope you enjoy the audio from these projects.
Having said that, my first duty outside my job and family is that Fruit of the Loom song. So off I go to write it. Danc has waited long enough!
