MahJong House 1.6

November 6th, 2009 · No Comments

Version 1.6 was launched at Youmacon this past weekend.  It unfortunately did not include the new scripting engine, characters or extra rewards.  As I had posted earlier these additions were going to require a substantial amount of time to code/model and would have pushed 1.6 well past the convention date.  So I had to make [...]

MahJong Updates

August 7th, 2009 · No Comments

It’s been a while since the last progress post on MahJong House.  This was mostly due to the change in our store software, making the switch meant having to pause development on the game.  Things are now back in full swing however, and there are many new features and ideas coming to the table.  Some [...]

Web Development (Or “The Hell of Coding”)

July 17th, 2009 · No Comments

I’ve completely lost track of how many hours Melanie and I have spent on coding the new site and shopping cart system.
The good news is that all of our pages should be updated soon, including the launch of a new store front powered by Ubercart (review coming soon).  The bad news is that by working [...]

JAFAX XIV

July 1st, 2009 · No Comments

I return, tired but pleased, from another year at GVSU in Allendale.  Jafax is a great convention, with lots of friendly faces, and being smaller means we get to talk more to people.

Currently I am implementing a save game system, so if you are needing to stop and come back to your current game you can.
Also,  I am working on a player list, which will track up to 10 individual people.  Maintain your [...]
