Blog post
Sorry folks, no images this time ;) Just a quick update on what I have been up to in the past couple of weeks.
Will add some extra images to the next blog post to make up :)
So, what have i been up to?
First of all, finishing up Magic Pearls. The game is done now, just need to finish up the level editor, and test it on mac (should work in theory, but haven't checked yet, so it probably isn't working on mac heheh).
I'll publish this game myself on www.firstrategames.com. I didn't think I could get publishers interested in a small puzzle game like this, so I didn't really look very hard for interested publishers. And, I wanted to launch my own game portal site for some time now, so this was a good opportunity to actually do something instead of dream about it :) My business partner is currently programming the e-commerce system. The site should go live in the coming weeks.
I'm also playing around with some new game ideas, and actually started doing some graphics for the next game already. It'll be a "match 3 game with a twist"... won't say more at this point, I will post screenshots and more info when I start coding. I know.... i can already hear the "oh no, not another match 3 game"... but wait untill you see it. It's quite original, and I believe it'll be really fun to play.
I'm not sure if I should use TGB, or stick with Flash. Both have pro's and con's.
I'm also thinking of taking down www.3d-resource.com Even though it doesn't cost me much to keep the site running.... it doesn't generate much profit either. If anyone is interested in buying the url or even the whole site (asp.net with an acces database, using paypal for payments), feel free to make a bid, but be quick (if I take it offline, it'll be in the coming week).

I have not failed my quest in finding a Belgian torque developer.

It can easily bring you $100-$300 a month, which is not bad - you can buy some tools for your development. In current state, I doubt that anybody can buy it - I can create such web site in a 5-10 hours, it doesnt have very complex ASP.NET pages, or atleast it shouldn't. I suggest you keep it and give it some work ;)
My 2 cents.

I'm not seriously looking for a buyer... just mentioned it, becuase.... well its a nice url, and its a working e-commerce application (with login, keeps track of products you own, etc I know its not "complex", but not everyone knows how to program a site like that). So if someone want to do a bargain, its better then taking it offline and burry it all on some backup CD-rom :)
