Since this will hopefully be my last year at the university, and for other reasons, I have been quite busy. As such, I have had to make some sacrifices, such as game development (as evidenced by the lack of updates to this blog). Again. But since I will be less busy after I finish my studies for this Autumn, which should happen next week, I will be free to continue working on Artillery Brawl, and hope I will be at least slightly less busy during the next semester! After all, it would be nice to have something in my portfolio to show when I start applying for jobs to write my thesis at. I also promise to try and get the card game I wrote about playable in the near future.

In other news, Python 3.0 was released while I was away. The improvements, especially to Unicode handling, look really interesting and I would really like to switch, but unfortunately, I can't... None of the libraries I'm using for Artillery Brawl - setuptools, pyglet and pymunk – have been updated for Python 3.0 yet. There's not much I can do except wait, so for now, I'm sticking with Python 2.6.
