If you are going to a University, or even if you are in high school, that does not offer any sort of game development courses, the Game Institute is having their yearly Christmas tuition discount — 20% off.   I highly recommend the place.   I’ve taken a couple courses through them and I haven’t been disappointed.    Self paced, game development centered, great staff, organized content, and fair prices win me over.  Just thought I’d note that for anybody who was curious about the place.

After being thrown completely off course last week from the ice storm, I plan on jumping back on the Snowball Fight bandwagon tomorrow.   There are a lot of things I want to do to it, and I really want to finish it.  I’ve been thinking that I need to add some sort of chat system to it.  It would be semi-silly to host a snowball fight with people out there, have them log in, throw a snowball, and log out, without the chance of knowing who they are.  So, we’ll see if I can pull this one out.  The game window is pretty small, so I don’t have a lot of room to work with.  I suppose, at a minimum, I can just allow people to log in with a user name that could easily allow people to I.D. each other.  I don’t know, I’m still thinking about this.

So, I survived another semester.   Not nearly as well as I wanted too, but I did.  I’ll save my educational pain for another post.
