It's been far too long since I've posted an update to anything here, but I should start getting back into the habit.
So where has all the time gone? Work, mostly. All of this was just something I could mess with in my off-time, and when that dried up so did this. No further updates to Omni, or the Tower project, but I'm not completely empty handed.
After years of meandering, I'm finally making a push to change my career and make this stuff my primary focus. Last fall I found Codify Academy, attended, learned, and graduated earlier this year. Web development is a bit of a shift from game development, but I ended up with an affinity for JavaScript which can help me do both. As such, this blog is going to be more focused on general development, and whatever I happen to be working on.
And that's not all! Along with my github repo expanding, I also now have a portfolio and a working app called Conclave (currently in open beta). Conclave is my first big project since finishing the Academy. It's a social platform built for the Academy, so mentors, students, and alumni have a central place to talk, share code, help with questions, communicate, and collaborate. It's built on AngularJS and Firebase, and will be a common topic on here as I talk about the ins and outs of how it works (and how to make your own!).
Feelin' good to be back.
