Updates:

10/21/8 - My latest retail game release, Spider-Man: Web of Shadows DS is out in stores now! Initial impressions from reviewers and such seem to be overall positive (whew!).

10/3/8 - Spider-Man: Web of Shadows for the Nintendo DS is the most recently announced retail game I've worked on. I designed the combat system and Spider-Man's moveset, and programmed the controls, enemies, and other gameplay elements. Today previews and a trailer video has started appearing around on the internet. Check out some previews here and here.

9/16/8 - I just completed a new Game Guide, which I haven't done for quite a while. This is a complete Character Guide for Castle Crashers.

8/03/8 - Web site redesigned and simplified. I was getting tired of the database-driven web site needing constant maintenance due to spam bots and hackers and such, especially since this is just a small site for downlading stuff I make. No one really used the comments and forums anyway. Thus I reverted to a much simpler web site of straight ol' html and a very basic layout. Only elements that require a database, such as Minebot Arena's high scores table, are still going to use the database. If you'd like to make a comment or ask a question, send me an e-mail (contact information can be found in the About section).

4/19/8 - Minebot Arena updated to version 1.24. My sincere apologies to all Minebot Arena fans that haven't been able to submit high scores for the past month or so!

Apparantly my web host changed their server structure in such a way that Minebot Arena's code for accessing the high scores didn't work any more. What's worse, rather than giving a connection error the web site just returned no data, and thus the game didn't even know to display an error, it just claimed you didn't make the high score list. I'm afraid most users will not even realize there's a problem unless they actually try to view the high score list from within the game and notice it is blank now.

For any that still play this game, a new version has been created that fixes the high score problem. Also, this new version is friendlier with windowed mode and minimizing than the previous version, and I bumped up the maximum saved high scores from 100 to 999 so more people can get on the high score list. Be sure to download the new version before attempting to get a new high score!

10/03/07 - My first (and likely last) retail Gameboy Advance game came out today, The Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Night. Its getting some pretty good reviews too! I am the gameplay programmer and combat designer for it.

9/12/7 - The www.minebotarena.com site is gone now. Since Minebot Arena has been out for several years now and this site gets very little traffic, I have stopped paying for the minebotarena.com domain name. Hopefully sites that linked to it, if any are left, will update their links directly to the url that minebotarena.com used to redirect you to - http://www.zauron.net/minebot.
