In 2009, I had the privilege to travel to Little Rock, Arkansas to visit Fellowship Bible Church. This is the home church of Robert Lewis, the man who created Men’s Fraternity. They had a fantastic production which included a countdown display leading up to their Men’s Frat sessions. I thought that was pretty cool, so […]
Pixie (2010)
As any good parent, I keep a couple of games on my BlackBerry to entertain my kids (and myself) in a pinch. As it turns out, my daughter fell in love with this game called Pixelated (thanks Ebscer). Unfortunately, this game does not exist on the PC…well…it didn’t. So, as a present to my little […]
Mouse Icon
Almost every single time I mock up a screen for work, I find myself searching on the internet (thanks, Google Images) for “mouse cursor.” The last time I did this, one of the images was a screen capture of the Windows Control Panel screen (where users can change the mouse cursor). Now, I do this […]
Return to the Web Site
Anyone still out there? It’s hard to believe that it has been over a year since my last post! No kidding, I remember that night like it was yesterday. Well, it has been an absolutely incredible year. I hope that you and yours had a blessed and Merry Christmas and I wish you a prosperous […]
Spatial Awareness
The moon is absolutely gorgeous tonight. Perhaps it’s the cool, crisp air that makes it look so clear – accentuated by a few scattered clouds that give it the illusion of being a spotlight pointing to another place on the planet. A spotlight. Interesting. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth, right? The […]
Wow…almost 6 years!
Six years ago, blogging was still pretty new. Relatively new, I guess. Looking back, it seems like I was pretty angry. I think that’s why I stopped writing. I didn’t enjoy being negative. Then why be negative? Most of the blogs I had been reading were “rants.” Hence the former title of “Insane Rants.” Rants […]
My Paradox
Last night, I updated my (first) blog. It was my third post. I started the blog in 2002. When I first started it, blogging was still (relatively) new. So, being a young guy with extra time, I started a blog. Then begins the paradox. I never once considered, “hey, what novel way can I use […]
Traffic (2007)
Traffic is a slight variation on the match-three style game. In fact, there really is no matching. When I started designing this game, I was really not planning on yet another Pipe Dream/Pipe Mania clone. I had something else in mind. Something that is now very elusive. In my mind’s eye, the original game had […]
Wild (2006)
Wild is a three-in-a-row style game. Each time you click, you make a block “wild” and drop three new blocks from the top. I started working on Wild after one of my Snood kicks. The goal was to create an easy to play game that you could play on two levels – you could just […]
Happy Halloween?
What’s up with trick-or-treating? I used to do it when I was a kid, but I always dressed up! If I am going to go ask someone for candy, I think I need to be dressed up. And I always said “trick-or-treat.” This year, kids came to my door, rang the door bell, and when […]
