Oh coffee

Just got back from my local coffee shop to work out some details on Planetary Defense such as ship icon design, paper prototyping board size, turn layout and a bit more.

Starting today I will be setting this as my official website for both my work and development of PD. That said, people will be able to follow me on Twitter, here: http://twitter.com/the9thdude, if you so wish. So now onto the nitty gritty details on the development of PD.

So far my learning of C# has been coming along slowly due to work and job hunting but I aim to be able to get a working prototype out by the end of next summer for the PC with mouse, keyboard, and 360 controller support. At that point I don't know if I'll make the jump from turn based to real time, but I'll wait to make that decision for later.

Until I can get my C# programming up-to-snuff, I'll be working on a paper prototype that will utilize a Go board for play. Right now I'm gonna start working on the .png icons to print and will post copies of the rules and said icons for your own enjoyment, free of charge ;D

Anyways, keep your eyes open in the next week or so because I would like to be able to show off the prototype at Indie City Games next meeting on the 11th for feedback and maybe some programming help.

Until next time!
