Hello All,
I just finished the best holiday I've ever had trekking through the mountains of Tasmania (we even had snow for a few days (30 cm)) met some very good people and had a good time all round.
As a result though I've decided (about a week ago) to give the PC a rest (most weekends and evenings were spent either on these forums, programming, rendering or other 'hobby' game dev stuff. It was more of an obsession really the amount of time I'd spend on it (and money too!)).
I've taken up bushwalking and regular exercise - I previously ceased regularly exercising upon purchasing my laptop in June 2005 and became totally engrossed in blitz related stuff.
Another reason for stopping development on Blood & Plunder 2 is that it is just not fun to play, very repetitive and well... boring (I'm not much of a game designer, mainly enjoyed the programming side of things).
I'll still visit the forums from time to time and attempt to answer the occasional question in the programming forums people have - I'm just not going to be working on any projects for the forseeable future.
Thanks all,
Matt
