The world of gamedev tutorials and Java is a hazardous one. The internet is full of outdated, broken tutorials that use long-abandoned bindings to OpenGL, engines that use out of date libraries, shit “personal toolkits” that work fine for a particular developer but no-one else and all other kinds of nonsense. How do I know… Continue reading lwjgl, maven and the path to happiness
soup that is beautiful
I do take a long time between posts, don’t I? theanswers42.com is kind of a thing I seem to end up taking a hiatus from, and then remember that I’ve actually got opinions about things and wonder where I can put them, and hey presto here I am again! I always come flying back saying that “this… Continue reading soup that is beautiful
strange delights
Last Sunday, I reviewed Doctor Mordrid, an early 1990s B-movie where the scriptwriters lost the rights to Doctor Strange and tried to rewrite the film to get around this, resulting in a somewhat odd but enjoyable movie that was heavily reminiscent of Doctor Strange but without being legally close enough for lawyer-fu to take place.

one year later…
Hello blog… I last updated you on the 29th of September last year, and so it’s exactly one year to the day as I write this. The year since then hasn’t been wasted at all, on the contrary it’s been very, very busy, but I feel as if you’ve been neglected, dear blog. This must… Continue reading one year later…
new year, new leaf… new blog?
So, it’s just come out of a (Jewish) new year, a time when traditionally people take stock of the previous year, and decide on new directions they’d like to take with the next. This is such a time for me, and what better time than to resurrect an old project such as this? I’ve also… Continue reading new year, new leaf… new blog?
