Flash beat-em-up game announced!

Friday, April 9th, 2010

Lately I’ve been bug-hunting across the site fixing various broken links, and minor scripting errors. Even more content has been introduced, such as the Facebook fan page for social networking and a Flash showcase section added too!

For Proweb as a marketing campaign; they asked me to produce a cool Flash game to encourage more visitors to their company site. So the premise will be nice, simple, funny and addictive. Yep, go old-skool by creating a retro stylised beat-em-up! It’s a nostalgic theme that still appeals heavily upon the mass audience who browse the Internet. There were hugely successful brands that are still fresh in most peoples’ memories like Street Fighter, Streets of Rage and Mortal Combat. (more…)

More stuff migrated…

It has been a challenge organising the gallery files into the showcase section, but hopefully it should prove more coherent and easier to navigate. It wouldn’t take long at all for the game  listings to follow next. Even updated a couple of pages as notice for various links closing down by the end of the month. Another thing I really need to get around is install a questionnaire plugin to ask you what you guys want? For example, if the flash example raise enough interest, I can whip up some tutorial notes on this blog?

Project files migrated

All has been going smoothly so far and hopefully the entire content should be transferred by the end of the week… I wasn’t sure whether to reinvent the navigation layout from the previous archive (I hope that doesn’t come across that I’m lazy, ok I do cheat a little, but at least I vamped up the visuals). For now, what remains on cloakedrealm.co.uk will be remove in a months time as a steady transition, so take a look at the old project setup and watch its days numbered! Shortly there will be new project updates published and a chunk will include more crazy experiments going on…

Continual updates…

If there are any broken links, grammatical errors or silly spelling mistakes throughout the site, please by all means let me know! I will amend them as soon as possible. In time, it’ll be difficult to look after with accumulating information. Any third-party images I may be using in this site will be addressed accordingly and would be generally used as case-study references.

Welcome to the blog…

This blog has been planned for use as a developer’s diary. Also you can comment on upcoming projects and even welcome to suggest ideas!

My apologies for the delay of making the site, but there have been pressing projects since August 2009 and intensive learning of PHP. I must say, why didn’t I learn it earlier; the shire power of content management will make my life so much easier to upload to projects and enhance them in ways I never imagined! Here is a series of logos below that were meant to dictate the final design. It should flow from the oldest on the left to the most recent on the right. I can guess it shows an on-going narrative on its own.
