This is just a minor bug fix release. We had received reports of some people having an issue where GradeWizard would simply crash when you attempted to enter grades on the Class page. I believe this was a device-specific bug as it wasn’t consistently reproducible. It did seem to occur on the Google Nexus devices.[…]
The Candy Jam just seemed like a really good reason to make a game. Originally, I had planned to just change a project I already had in the works to include candy… but that felt too easy. I wanted a little more challenge than that. I wanted to be much more sophisticated and experimental in[…]
Recently I decided to participate in the 2013 Indie Speed Run, a rapid game development contest sponsored by The Escapist. I’ve been doing quite a few of these game jam type events lately, but this time, I decided to call in some help. So, I asked my friend Pete Mitchell, who some of you may[…]

Also, unlike the previous EDGE game development competition that I entered, external art is not allowed at all. If you want art in your game, you have[…]
