As an excercise in CSS, HTML and XML, I have tried to make this blog look more professional. I have used an existing free template (see footer) and removed all elements that I did not like. Also blogger.com doesn't really handle multiple pages very well. The pages in the menu are links to searches for certain labels, but it'll do. I hope this new design looks good enough for the new purpose of this blog: game reviews & tutorials.
Game reviews
The biggest problem of Indie Game Developers is publicity. I learned that the hard way. I got positive feedback from people playing my game, but simply not enough players found it. I believe every little bit of publicity will help fellow Indies so I have decided to give it a try. I play those games anyway.
I will start reviewing games from people who already helped me during my development, but if you want to request a review, click on
Submit game for review link in the top bar. It's free with a small condition. See the submission form for details. I plan to do a review or two per week.
Tutorials
There's never enough tutorials and since I have already made one published and one unpublished game in AndEngine, I want to share my experience in a series of tutorials. There are already some tutorials for AndEngine, but this simple and free 2D engine always suffered from a lack of documentation - so I guess it won't hurt to write an article or two!
