\nAnd now I will have to launch an update to fix the dyslexic error in that main image. :)
\n…Until then, it’s “artsy”.<\/p>\n

Description:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Big Gib takes place in the year 20xx after humanity uploaded itself into cyberspace because the Communists have won.
\nYou play as one of SpaceCom’s elite cyberspace commanders tasked to clean the internet up. In this case, an unauthorized tourney took place creating a dangerous influx of gibs. The gibs are now DOS-ing critical sectors of the internet, and it is only a mater of time before everything is overloaded with meat. It is your job to find the source of gibs and destroy it. The internet depends on you.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I recently launched the new website for The Big Gib<\/a>, featuring an animated .gif gallery<\/a> of all the game art, and more. Check it out!<\/a><\/p>\n

The sourcefile directory for The Big Gib<\/a> has also been updated with the new AS3 port. Get it here: http:\/\/nathalielawhead.com\/sourcefiles\/SpaceCom_The_Big_Gib\/The_Big_Gib_AS3.zip<\/a>
\n\u2026I will have to remember to do this for all my games once I\u2019m finished with this porting to mobile business.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m currently chewing through re-writing the engine of the last pending mobile port, Tetrageddon (Tetris For Us FPS Gamers)<\/a>… You know… I\u2019m thinking of actually renaming it to Tetrageddon (Bloodsport Tetris), because it\u2019s a better description of the game. :)
\nOnce I\u2019m finished wrapping that up I\u2019ll be starting on my next larger, crazier, more epic game design adventure. I want to make a more \u201cserious\u201d\/epic game-game. Putting experimenting aside for a bit (just a bit), and following more of a concise structure (clear goals, mission, exploration, puzzles, etc\u2026). This would be easier to sell because it’s more of a “product”. I\u2019ve already registered the domain name for it! But I don\u2019t want to spoil anything so I\u2019ll stop there\u2026
\nStill need to launch that final mobile release.<\/p>\n

In other news\u2026 if you haven\u2019t heard already, Adobe and Icograda have been doing some amazing stuff for students (their Adobe Design Achievement Awards<\/a>). I was asked if I would participate in the Mentorship Program<\/a> (for game design), and was thrilled at the prospect of sharing my experience with someone.
\nRecently they\u2019ve written a blog post about the 2014 Icograda-ADAA Mentorship Program (here)<\/a>, check it out! If you\u2019re a student it may be of interest.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m still going to be releasing all the sourcefiles for the mini-sites I made for Tetrageddon Games<\/a>. Stay tuned!
\nAnd YES<\/strong>. All games will be supported on Android (eventually). As soon as I’m finished getting things on the App Store, Google Play will be next.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
