Oh, Hello!

It has certainly been a while since I’ve been here.  I’m never the type to keep up with a blog anyway (which I regret at times), but believe me when I say it’s been an interesting six months since.  Here are some notes:

  • We released our first iPhone game!  It’s called Bongo Blitz, and I couldn’t be more proud, of our company and of Kris, my friend and co-founder.
  • I went to GDC! (which stole my heart), and I also went to E3 (which kind of broke my heart). But I’m being overdramatic.
  • I got to meet a lot of amazing people in the gaming and app industry, which I am truly humbled and grateful for.  I’ve already learned a lot from them.
  • We started work on our second iPhone game, all the while trying our damnedest to update our first game with good content.  Even though it doesn’t look like it.
  • I was lying about E3 (mostly), I really did have fun. I got to play a bunch of new video games before anyone else!  Do I really have the right to complain?
  • I’ve been freelancing again, and hopefully you’ll get to see some of this work soon.
  • I’ve been able to travel, and work, and see friends, and work, and travel, and see friends.  I would do that forever if I could.

Working for myself has been a real blessing, but unfortunately it doesn’t pay all the bills just yet. Okay, it doesn’t pay a lot of the bills yet. Hence things like freelancing.  But I still love what I do every day, and I’m not stopping any time soon.

In the meantime, I’ll be here, doing my best to write something coherent (or at least post a funny video or two). Mostly for me, to keep myself in check, but also to keep you (my two readers) in the loop.  So… hello!  How’s life?
