Opposable Eating Habits is released
2014-10-09
I decided to spend a few more hours on my 3 hour game jam entry “3 Hour Opposite”. It’s now called Opposable Eating Habits.
Half of the time was spent adding some of the gameplay elements I didn’t have time to add during the 3 hours period of the game jam. The other half was exploring Haxe/OpenFL/Haxeflixel’s multiplatform capabilities.
After a small amount of pre-amble the Haxe development stack works surprisingly well. Getting the game to run in both Android and native Windows was relatively quite easy. I would definitely consider using the Haxe stack for mobile development in the future.
You can get the game for Windows or Android at itch.io. Here is the link to the games profile page :

And here’s a screenshot of the game. It looks essentially the same as the 3 hour jam version :

HaxeFlixel pixel art piece : Chasing the Dead
2014-10-06
In the interest of finishing open projects I finished up a small pixel art piece which has its motion driven with HaxeFlixel.
Always feels good to have something finished. Makes working on existing projects easier.

I’ve been doing some cooking
2014-10-03
A hobby I’ve always had is cooking. I was really sad and cancelled my cable when the Canadian food channel pretty much stopped showing cooking shows and only showed reality television or “food porn” shows that aren’t actually educational. That was around the time I cancelled my cable subscription.
Despite not being able to see shows like Chef at Home and French Food at Home I still like to cook when I can. Ideally I’d like to cook more often because even when my food isn’t super healthy , I still feel better than when I get takeout.
Anyways I’ve started a Tumblr where I post about food I cooked that turned out well. I try not to post the total disasters
