In other news I’ve been busily working towards big milestones at work and all is going well.  I’ve started playing with HGE (Haaf’s Game Engine) and so far I’m enjoying it.  I’ve just put a small game together which I’ll release later in the week for everyone to try out.  I decided after writing an article and all the months of work on BSG and CIC I needed a small pet project for the weekend so I threw something together in a few hours.  I’ll have full stats when I release the game.

That’s about all for now.  CIC is still creeping along slowly however with 9+ hours of work per day and then an hour or so of article writing I haven’t had the brain energy left to solve some of the complex problems I’m facing in CIC.  It is moving along smoothly though and I have movement with missile pathing working nicely.
