An announcement

Posted by Astryl on April 2, 2013, 8:12 a.m.

Righto guys. Decided to get this off my chest now, instead of waiting.

I'm relocating most of my written work to here, like Blackhole did.

Why? Because point blank: The kinds of material I want to write don't fit in here.

OK, first things first: There is no April Fools related material in this blog. I'm having enough fun pranking those around me. :P

Secondly, yes, I changed my CSS. Yes, it's still in ugly phase. It'll get better eventually. (On that note, what class do comments use? Trying to find …

What is this, MySpace? (+unrelated 56k warning!)

Posted by S3xySeele on April 1, 2013, 2:55 a.m.

All these cheesy custom CSS styles users be havin' is seriously giving me a headache… It feels like I've gone back in time to when people thought MySpace was cool.

I'm creating this blog for people who might want to try HnH. I might decide to play if I have time and if others are willing to start a village together. Haven and Hearth is a permadeath MMO survival/RPG. You will die and you will die a lot starting out. …

Lisp in GML

Posted by nooodl on March 31, 2013, 7:53 a.m.

What's Lisp?

Lisp is a functional programming language with an extremely simple syntax (based on S-expressions) that's quite easy to implement. (Here's a Ruby implementation in about 50 lines I made last year.)

Problems and whatnot

Split-screen ain't dead yet

Posted by Fabio on March 28, 2013, 4:25 p.m.

I'm on break! With more free time than normal I've been banging around in GameMaker (and by banging around I mean up for three straight days) on a split-screen 1v1 game similar to titles like Dota and League of Legends. I still love playing multiplayer games like Smash Brothers and …
