Firstly, I'd like to wish all at TDC a Happy New Year. Over the last few days we have had a considerable number of submissions, but due to the holiday period, I at least have not had the opportunity until now to look at them properly. You will find two golden news posts below this one! That makes three in one whole day!
Right, so 2011 didn't end too promisingly, with the departures of OMC and Rikus, and the initial concern about the future of TDC hanging in the balance (I admittedly, and probably prematurely, created a "Save TDC" Facebook page). TDC at the current time looks to be in a stale environment, but I do ask you all to hang in there - the site will almost certainly be shaken up fairly soon. TDC is not set to close for the foreseeable future. But I do conceed that change is necessary, if not in website design, then in the administration of the site. I do urge you all to please be as patient as possible :)
In other news, Clickteam recently hinted on their Facebook page (www.facebook.com/clickteam) that the MMF2 XNA runtime release is very imminent. How soon? Who knows? :)
It is Clickteams Andos birthday today. Unless you are reading this on any other date than January 3rd. Happy birthday Andos!
Jason Darby has relaunched his website Castle Software. Jason, as we know, has released several iOS games, and written many books on game design, all of which can be found here.
The Newgrounds Christmas Competition has had numerous entries created with Clickteam products. Check them out HERE and see what scores were given to them.
That's enough news for the moment. Happy New Year!
