Busy, Busy (and XNA Community Games)

You may expect a slight reduction in my frequency of posting for a bit.  I’ve currently got two game projects coming to a boil and a novel to revise, not to mention some non-Geek Codex web writing to do.

In essence, I’m heavily booked at the moment and finding the creative energy to blog may be difficult.  I’ll post what I can, when I can.

I’ll leave you with this: XNA Community Games are cool.  If you have an Xbox 360, crack open the Game Marketplace section and give the following games a try, because I recommend them as fun.

• Colosseum - Cel-shaded 3D action/beat-em-up
• (sin)Surfing - Ride waves and do tricks with Atari 2600-style graphics
• Biology Battle - Geometry Wars-style top-down shooter with some neat visual tricks

Note to Microsoft: Please allow developers to give more than four minutes of trial play.  It’s crippling for some games, like Blow, which I would probably recommend if I’d gotten the chance to play it beyond the tutorial levels.
