Improved Web Server

This morning while tinkering around with the Amazon EC2 instance that we use for our website and game server, I noticed that they had a new instance type available. What shocked me was that it was better…  And cheaper!

We have been using their "T1 Micro" instance …

Hey everyone! I hope you like walls of text!

I'm looking to introduce myself, share my interests and talk about my projects, so this is gonna be a 'here's me and this is what I do' sort of blog. Self-expositional might be a better term xD. If you don't care …

First off, sorry about no project updates over the past couple days! It's been hectic.

One interesting thing that did happen is that Areum was talked about on a Polish MMORPG news website!

I decided last night to start writing a few more progress blogs for my more 'mundane' projects.

Scary4Digits: Mercenaries

Posted by flashback on Sept. 4, 2014, 11:37 p.m.

What is a mercenary, and what does it do?

Well here:

Excessive amounts of time were spent waiting.

Waiting in the airport, waiting for my parents, waiting for things to do, waiting for the plane to complete its …

Touhou Smash, (Day 17) with ghost platforms!

Posted by fromsoysauce on Sept. 4, 2014, 9:33 a.m.

This is a very important part of smash bros. It was very hard for me to program into the game because Unity's Physics engine kept on wanting the ghost platforms to be treated as only solid. I bypassed this by making them non physical objects. They are only mathamatical objects, …

I'm starting school and a very hard semester at that. I've made the decision to stop working on Cursed Black completely until I'm done with the semester and I have time to work on it during Christmas time. Reason being that I'm thinking too much on …
