Time for a break

Well, Christmas is here (almost) and I figure now would be a good time to take some time off. My son will be breaking up from school in a couple of days, so I probably wouldn't be able to get much work done anyway.

What I do plan to do over the next couple of weeks though is planning. I am currently working on a new game, now that Light 'em Up is complete, and this is going to require a little more planning that previous projects. I am also working on a couple of applications that will need some thinking about, including what language to use. I had planned to code them in RealBasic, but I am currently veering towards creating native Cocoa apps in Objective-C. It's something I will have to think about.

So, what for the new year? Well, pretty much more of the same. New games, maybe some remakes, and the usual eclectic mix of applications that I create for my own purposes. Some of these applications may be released, depending of what I think of them when they are complete.

Anyway, have a good festive season and see you all in the new year.

Light 'Em Up Complete

I have just finished the coding of my new game: Light 'em Up.

This is based on the old hand held game Lights Out, but I have added a few extra twists.
I have a few minor things to attend to, before this one is released, but for now, here are some screen shots:
