Ships!

Sat down and crunched some numbers for the ship designs last night and things are coming along nicely.  I was originally going to just draw a bunch of ships and see what happened but after realizing how many there were to draw I changed my mind.  There are a ton of ships in this game!  Wow.  

I figured by taking the various ratings the ships have in the game, convert those to cm and mm dimensions, they could be used as guidelines when drawing them.  By using these size ratings, each ship would then look appropriately sized when compared to each other on the screen.  Also, if I have the bones of the ships predetermined, the drawing will go faster.  Win!

Anyway...sorry about this week and the quiz.  Being sick really threw me off my game.  I should really start thinking about getting the full website up to start showcasing the art and music work I'm doing for various games.  It would be nice if I could do a bit more of that for people once I get these projects done.  If it wasn't for this pesky job I could do it full time!  Think of the games people!  Think of all the games we could make!

WOOHOOOOO!!!! SHIPS! WOOHOO!! I'm working on a layout system right now so that I can test the game...and have it ready for ship designs. Color me excited.

Also, there aren't a TON of ships, there are only 33. If they were real, there'd be multiple tons of ships. In this case, though, they live only in your imagination.

And it would seem that, in his imagination, the ships - combined - weigh one ton. Therefore, it IS a ton of ships.

How dare you insult me.
I demand satisfaction!
