Updates?

Okay, fellow Omegans. It’s been a few weeks and not so much activity. Time for a report on how we’re all going on these next drafts. I figure this might help getting some motivation for the less motivated and maybe some discussion going again.

I’ll start. I wanted to take a few weeks break before revising Fade, just to let the ideas swim around my brain a bit. Then my computer died (no data loss - just old components blowing), pretty much just as I was planning to start my major revision. Today my nice new laptop got delivered and, in between playing with what it can do and getting it all set up I have begun by big revision. I hope to have it finished in the next couple of weeks, after which some playtesting can begin.

What about the rest of you?

layout of entries?

So, I don’t know anything about WordPress, but would it be possible to do something with the layout so that the text displays using more than a third of my screen? I’m not sure what the group’s average screen resolution is, but it looks like our current template is designed for 800 x 600 — and then on top of that the post text is only two thirds of the available area. It makes posts really really long (especially since I like to read big text) and it bothers the design-guy in me when I have like 400+ pixels of empty space to the right of the actual page content (seriously it’s like half the page!) Surely there must be some templates that are at least a bit wider, even if not everyone can be assumed to be running at 1280 x 1024? I’d fiddle myself but I am clueless about the software, as mentioned, and of course I don’t want to mess up other folks’ displays if it turns out I’m in the minority in being bothered by this.

Daniel.

Transform and Roll Out!

Our fellow GC2007 alumni from Team Unicron have set up their own kitchen, HQ Unicron! They were nice enough to link to us so I set up a new set of links just for them (and whatever other group blogs come out of Game Chef).

Go visit that planet-consuming monstrosity!
