New Site Design

As you may have seen I've revamped the site a bit design wise. Essentially just new banners for the frontpage, games page and the blog. Hope you like them!

I'll see if I can do something to the forum while I'm at it, and fix all the screenshots on the games page.

Then back to working on Tuning and LDI...

URLs

The new url to the site is http://www.cactusquid.com/ although the old one is still working.

Other urls include:
http://games.cactusquid.com/
http://blog.cactusquid.com/
http://forums.cactusquid.com/

Big thanks to grapefrukt and charlie for help with hosting and whatnot. You guys are awesome!

Hosting / New Domain

Seems like my filehost will go offline in a while (it might already be). And I don't feel like re-uploading my games too often, so I was wondering if anyone would be willing to permanently host them.

If not, does anyone know a good place to upload them that isn't likely to be taken down, and that offers hotlinking?

So I now have two mirrors. Should be up within days. In other news, I just got a real domain... So now you can go to cactusquid.com instead cactus-soft.co.nr.

Dungeon

Finally a new release. This game's called Dungeon, and is what me and Arthur "MrPodunkian" Lee managed to whip up for the current Mini LD. The theme was Comedy and Tragedy. I think we went more for the latter.

DOWNLOAD GAME
Controls:

Some Images

Just some things I've been playing around with when not working on TUNING and LIFE/DEATH/ISLAND. Click images for larger screenshots.

New York

I've been in New York the last two days, doing a panel discussion for NYU with Mark "Messhof" Essen and Anna "Dessgeega" "Auntie Pixelante" Anthropy. It went really well, and I got to meet some awesome people. The discussion is supposed to be posted online for anyone to listen to, but I don't know when or where.

Now I'm sitting alone in my hotel room, eating pretzels and waiting for something to happen before I need to check out.
