Weekly Report 8
It’s been a few weeks since the last weekly report so I felt I it was time to do another one.
What have I been doing this week
Releasing the DLC.
Now things are much less stressed I can work on the PC port in peace, and maybe do the odd update to add new content to the game now and again.
What have I been playing this week?
Read Dead Redemption: Got this at Christmas and just finished it yesterday. I enjoyed the main quest, but found the world a little boring when I was trying to be a good guy. I felt like the plot for missions would often end with no real resolution. Also there was about 5 minutes after the game had finished where I was left waiting for a new mission to appear. Maybe it’s just me but I expected a final chapter that would be about revenge. -Edit [There was a another quest for me to do to finish the game but it was optional and I could have easily missed it]
Red Dead Redemption Undead Nightmare: I’m liking this a lot. I’m only two hours in, but I’m having a lot fun. It feels a little like a fan mod but it basically is a mod. Hopefully I don’t get bored before I finish it.
Renegade Ops: I picked this up for 600msp in the Christmas sale. Reneged Ops is the spiritual successor to Strike games (Soviet Strike, Desert Strike etc) There is no other way of putting it. I’m really liking it my only disappointment is that the levels get less open as you go on.
What have I been watching this week?
Nothing much to be honest. New episodes of Fringe and Supernatural and thats it for this week.
Dead Pixels update is out now.
I hope you enjoy the new modes. I tried to mix things up with them. If you don’t like them, they were free and the original game is still there for you to play, so don’t get too angry.
–How to get it–
Go into the game and it should ask you to update.

I’ll make my own XBLIG list with hookers and blackjack!
Most people with no games on Microsoft’s best indie games of 2011 list have been disappointed in the choices.
@clingermangw suggested we make our own XBLIG lists and share them, and I couldn’t help but think of Benders wise words.

Weekly report #006
Just a quick update this week so I can get back to work.
What have I been doing this week
Adding new weapons and playtesting with a friend.
I can officially say my new favorite way to kill zombies is to to use freeze grenades, then shock grenades.
What have I been playing this week?
A little Super Meat Boy, but that’s it.
What have I been watching this week?
More Mad Men: It’s still the 60′s!
More Six Feet Under:They bury dead people!
Dexter season 6 finale: The most interesting stuff was left unresolved!
How I add weapons to Dead Pixels.
I’ve realised that I don’t go into many details about the backend of Dead Pixels, which is a shame because I like to read about that kind of thing with other peoples games.
So in this blog post I’m going to show start to finish how I add a new gun to the game. In this case it’s going to be a sniper rifle.

What have I been doing this week
Everything is very playable so I’ve been doing lots of playtesting.
Games Collection 2011
I decided to clean up and take some pictures of my games collection and I though I would post it here too as some people asked about my retro influences in some of the interview I had done.
Weekly Report # 004
Never again will I be worried that an upside down woman is goign to stick her hand down my thought.
What have I been doing this week?
Looking back it feels like not too much was done this week, but I have done a lot to the back end of dead pixels to hopefully make the new modes feel better. Hopefully I’m going to do some apphub playtesting in the next 24 hours.
