Hey everybody! :D

I've been at DigiPen (the game school) for over a semester now. It's been a blast! Everybody keeps asking me what I do over here and very soon I'll have something to show for all my hard work! Invasion Squad XIV is a game me and 7 fellow classmates are making and it will be done in early May. Basically, you're the commander of a bunch of aliens in a giant mothership. Your job is to take over America. It's pretty cool, cause not only is it a fun idea... but we already have some working prototypes and it's pretty damn fun! :)

I've been doing my best to hold out and keep my upcoming game a secret, but it's finally time for it to be unveiled! w00t w00t! We got this cool chick to make a website for us, and she's doing a damn fine job. Check it out and find out more about the game!

Let me know what you think!  :p

Sir? May I recommend I load myself into the reverse-thrust tubes and you use my body as decoy-fodder? This will, of course leave me splattered across deep space and unable to complete today's laundry, for which I apologise in advance.

The hardest part of getting into DigiPen for me was getting a loan! It took me 3 FUCKING YEARS!!! But yah... odds aren't good and get worse every year with all the expsure the school gets lately. 30,000 request admission packets every year... 3,000 actually fill them out and only 120 get accepted (that's just for the programming stuff... I'm not sure about the art program). One of my friends here didn't get in till his third application. On the other hand another guy I know turned his in late (3 weeks before school) and somehow made it. The admissions is a very "personal" process here though. It's not COMPLETELY based on grades. A lot of it is talking having phone interviews, recommendations, and being excited, interesting, and honest. Anyone can get here as long as they want it bad enough.

Personally I recommend that you take a LOT of math... learn either 0 or at least 2, not 1, programming languages (C++ being one of the 2)... play with level editors a lot (Jazz the Jackrabbit 2, WorldCraft, Abuse, StarCraft, etc.)... look for a program by Sierra called "Klick&Play" and mess around with it... and learn how to convert between binary, decimal, and hex in your head.

Anyway... you can actually play the game now! There's demo up on the site! But don't expect anything spectacular... we JUST started implementing the actual "game" part of the game.

Have fun. :)
