Been a long time

I'm sorry it's been so long since there's been an update. Not that anyone actually reads this thing, haha.

Some news though, Whitemage Productions is going to be renamed to Whitemage Entertainment, seeing as we intend to deal in video games as well as film (which was the original intent of wm production when it was founded in 2005).

There's some real work coming on a project currently named "green bean" not to get anyone's hopes up, but it's looking good. I haven't really had the time or energy to work on anything much lately, and graphics are still difficult for me to get my hands on, since I have little to no financing, and no artistic skill of my own. I hope to get some good progress in the coming week though, and provide you with updates ASAP.

Slacker

Okay, I've been kinda slacking... My son only just got better, so of course, I've been busy with that.. but the problem is, I have so many ideas buzzing through my brain, and I don't know where to start.
Several games are just vying for my attention, and I don't know which one to work on.

Currently in the works, are as follows:

The Steel Tower - tower defence
Green Bean - Time management/farming sim
Bermuda - RPG/farming sim
Unnamed virtual pet game - pet sim/time management
Cathenia - RPG/rts/time management
Unnamed board game - rpg-style board game

and many, many others that haven't quite been formed yet in my brain, but are still trying to work themselves out..

The problem is, I'm a slacker. That's not really the major problem, but it's part of it.
The REAL problem is, I can't draw, pretty much at all... so I'm having issues with graphics.. I have these great ideas in my head, but of course, I know next to nothing about graphic design, so I'm kinda boned in that respect.

I've got a couple of people that I could potentially ask to design some stuff for me, the problem is, none of them are graphic artist. They're good artists, but they don't normally do computer graphics, so that's a huge setback.

I'm not entirely sure what to do on that front, because my budget is nearly non-existent, and it's a bit hard to hire someone (who you don't already know) when you can't really afford to pay them.

So, that's the update.. I'll try to update more often, but, of course, I don't always have an update to give.

busy bee

Sorry I haven't updated much, it's been pretty hectic around here.

My mom came to visit, and stayed here for a few days, then my friend's son was having his 1st birthday... and then My son got some sort of stomach bug (most likely from someone at the bday party).

So it's been pretty intense around here, and I haven't been able to work on any games in about 2 weeks.

I'll see if I can get some new info posted soon, and maybe get you all psyched up for my new project

THE STEEL TOWER!

Perhaps if I say it enough it'll become viral, and everyone will be wondering what THE STEEL TOWER is.

Keep checking back, hopefully I'll have some more info for you soon.

And don't be shy about clicking the ad links on my blog... I'd actually appreciate it. SO if anything sparks your interest, click those ads! Maybe you'll uncover something amazing.. or maybe not. You'll never know if you don't click them.


Anyway.... it's 4am.. I should probably think about going to bed.
And so should you. Crazy people, reading my blog at 4am.

The Steel Tower

I'm currently working on a new game, it's called The Steel Tower.

It's a tower defence, with a twist.

Keep checking for updates, I'll let you know more when I have more to say.

Problem Solved

It appears that there was a bit of an issue uploading the new patch for Fruit Explosion, but it should be working now. So give it a try, and have fun.

Fruit Explosion Patch 2.1

Fixed some known issues.
The stars now play their own sound, and no longer sound as if you pressed a fruit.
The Stars now move faster, and are more difficult to click.
The Rotten Fruit now play a more audible sound when clicked.


The Top Score screen is still broken. I am working on getting that fixed.

You Can Play It Here

Known Bugs

There are a few known bugs that I'm working on fixing.
For starters, the Stars make the same sound as the fruit when clicked, and they also move far too slow.
Some of the fruit still makes noise when the sound is turned off.
The "Top Score" page won't load properly.

And I'm sure there are more. So I'll work them out, and hopefully have it patched within a few days.
