Development Journal #04

Switched to Unity.  Liking the decision.  Still a programming n00b, but I've gotten farther with it.

Development Journal #03

Progress is slow (though it has only been two weeks since I even created the concept, so all things considered this might be pretty good progress.  Wouldn't know), as the last two weeks have almost entirely been trying to figure out the Unreal Development Kit.  As far as making the game goes.  I've been trying to learn how SQL servers work for a school project.

If anyone happens to know Unreal Script and would be able to help me figure it out, that would be greatly appreciated.

Why Unreal Engine and not Unity?  Because that's the first thing that came to mind.  I have, however, just learned that Unity also supports 2D games and (which I already knew) the free version also supports C++ (or was it C#?) coding for game systems.  So I'm going to look into that.

Development Journal #02 - Still Getting Distracted on Superfluous Details

Still haven't gotten an isometric camera working, but look!  Custom textures on a redesigned Box Canyon!

Still need to work on getting the tiling to be less obvious, but look how majestic that orb is. 
Majesty Incarnate.

So I'm making something in the UDK

Got a game somewhat designed.

Now I'm going to make it.

First I must learn the Unreal Development Kit

So I started with a box canyon.

Then I added an orb.
