Don’t quit your day job? Here’s why I haven’t…
Aug 24th
On September 14th Golemizer will be 2 years old. I was wondering which way I could highlight this anniversary so here’s a look at how it did on the financial level. I won’t go into much details about the why it did good or bad as I’ve already touched these on my blog (and still [...]
More power to Golemizer’s community
Aug 22nd
I keep getting requests from players that would like to become GMs. The problem is that most of them just don’t understand what becoming a GM for Golemizer is about.
Sure you get access to the mute and ban commands but those are just boring tools. I have never given a GM account based only on [...]
Starcraft 2: Where is this new game I bought?
Aug 16th
Well yes I bought Starcraft 2. Yes I was partly right about what I was fearing and yes I have only myself to blame for those $60 I spent … Bah …
I don’t care about multiplayer so that leaves me the campaign and matches against the PC. I knew that and the campaign was my [...]
I’m a sad gamer – It’s all guns, armors, graphics and no story
Jul 25th
I’m currently struggling to decide if I’ll get Starcraft 2. I really liked the first installment but it seems that I’m not in the majority when it comes to please players in these high-value productions. Heavy focus is put on everything multiplayer and I understand that for a game to last it’s probably the way [...]
Not knowing makes you feel safer
Jul 23rd
If you’re a fan of dystopian stories like me the title of this post is nothing new to you. And if you’re REAL fan of dystopian stories like me it’s really just something old you have thought about a hundred times and are bored of hearing. Truth is as much you might know ignorance keep [...]
Indie game: Steambirds, my random thoughts
Jul 17th
You don’t know what is Steambirds? Go play now.
I’m not going further until you have played a bit …
…
…
Seriously …
Ok I guess that now you have played a bit now. Here are my random thoughts about it. For some reason I found this oldish post on Gamasutra which I’m sure I’ve seen before but I [...]
Two wonderful weeks of full-time indie game development
Jul 14th
Let’s get done with the boring part first. Boring but important.
Working at home on your own when you don’t have hard deadlines to reach is not for everyone. It’s so much easier to decide to go swim for 10-15-20 minutes in the pool when it’s 30 in your basement. When your incomes are a direct [...]
The Interweb is not part of reality
Jul 9th
So yeah Blizzard have backed down. Ask me what I fear most. Almost total anonymity or having your name next to the things you are saying? Honestly I fear much more anonymity.
In the last few days we have seen a part of the web going crazy about a company announcing in advance how it plans [...]
The value of money
Jul 4th
If you can’t sell a game every 52 minutes, you will need a day job, basically.
That quote is from Cliffski. That guy make games and make a living out of them. Don’t get me wrong. I fully know the value of money but that quote still struck imagination.
So I know the value of money? Yep! [...]
Fun fact: Golemizer has a higher ranking than Runescape on Kongregate
Jun 24th
Right now Golemizer has a ranking of 3.51 and Runescape a ranking of 3.23. Well ok it’s not much to brag about and you must take with a grain of salt such rankings … I’m still bragging about it though as one small bit I learned in the past 3 years is that if you [...]
