Finally, myself along with the gang that I work with are starting up another company to create our own game. No more working for other people. We have our own ideas and we have the motivation. It’s time to construct our own game.

The new game company that we just established is called Mission Critical Studios. We have begun the design process of the game which at this point is all on paper (so to speak). I’d say that in the next month we’ll start blocking out the game and putting our coding caps on. This way we can see what works and what doesn’t. The business is already started and meetings with financiers are underway.

Ah… I love starting new projects.

So, what of my other projects? I had two major things under belt… ok, I have two major things under my belt. One is the book, Half-Life 2 Mods For Dummies. The book is nearly complete as this weekend is the first time I see the end is near. I know that another round of editing needs to be done, but that comes when it comes and it’s not as nearly bad as writing the first draft. I should be done with the first draft in two weeks.

Two is the mailer project, IGotYourEmail.com. This is a web-based HTML email system complete with stats and very, very full featured. You can create multiple mailers (newsletters), multiple lists of subscribers and send them out right away or in the future; track how reads them, for how long and when; track who clicks what link in your email and follow their clicking through your website via conversion tracking. I’m telling you, there is nothing else out there that compares. This project basically finished up this week. We have a few more things to tidy up on the website regarding the layout and we can pass it onto the marketing team.
