Where's the Wofl?

From the depths of inactivity, I welcome you back to my blog. For those of you who visit regularly in the hopes that I've gotten around to posting something; my apologies for keeping you waiting this long.

The cause of my hiatus is twofold. Firstly, Diablo 3 was launched and I've logged a lot of hours on it (let's call it research, shall we?) and secondly, I have a huge deadline at my RL job that's coming up very soon. That said, I will be posting something new this weekend.

I haven't been 100% idle with my indie development. I've been doing some experiments with statistical models for generating random data - specifically Gauss Distributions and trying to find better ways of generating data based on that model in code. D3 has been quite an inspiration concerning RNG and I hope that my new ideas will translate well into what I would like to achieve in my game projects.

So, until this weekend, I bid you all adieu.

  2. Definitely looking forward to the renewed/looming activity---keep at the fine work and might I also recommend some "Creative Study" in the form of Path of Exile to supplement your DIII notions?

    1. I've been considering PoE but isn't it in closed Beta now? I'd definitely like to check it out.

    2. IIRC, the full on open Beta is due to spring forth in these next weeks or so, with this past weekend being an open one.
