http://studio-nocturne.com Thu, 02 Apr 2009 20:26:25 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en April is the month that employers (i.e. me) dread and employees love. It's the month that Thailand basically shut down with so many holidays packed in including official Thai New Year (Songkran). I'm still waiting for NIA committee to deliberate on our iPhone game project. The meeting kept moving back ... http://studio-nocturne.com/?p=48 I consider music to be one of the most important components to my games (when the budget afford me to). Some of my favorite games of all time are rhythm games or games with great sound track. My latest musical infatuation is Lady Gaga. By now, most of you are probably ... http://studio-nocturne.com/?p=47 On related iPhone news, we're in discussion with NIA (National Innovation Agency), seemingly the only competent government agency in Thailand,  about Studio Nocturne's very own iPhone and iPod game. Now, if it's other government agency, I'll take it as lip-service unless I want to give them 'tea-money' for their help. ... http://studio-nocturne.com/?p=46 Yes, it's official. We got our first iPhone/iPod game game porting project. Yippee! How did we do this since we do not have 'official' iPhone/iPod project under our belt? We asked the client (at the time potential) to send over hires screenshot of their game along with one paragraph functional ... http://studio-nocturne.com/?p=44 Well, the show was better than I expected. Again, I basically do not expect anything at all so it's rather hard to be less than zero. Ran into Kevin from Majesco by accident and he seemed quite keen on our NDS title. Their success with Cooking Mama franchise certainly leads me ... http://studio-nocturne.com/?p=43 Let's keep it simple: Tony Jaa Rocks! http://studio-nocturne.com/?p=42 Our first formal coverage of Housewife Superstar is up. Of course it's no surprise to regular readers that the article is by Brandon Sheffield. Brandon disclosed that I will have him work on the project brushing up script, more of an editor since I would still conceptualize and write the ... http://studio-nocturne.com/?p=40 I accidentally ran into Rob Reger at Wondercon. I was buying the Dark Horse compilation and the school "crest." I normally am not one of those autograph hound nor am I easily starstruck. However, I thought Rob seemed cool enough and since I bought Emily's merchandise, I thought I'd asked him ... http://studio-nocturne.com/?p=34 Met up with Ian. It's amazing to me how people react to him. I sometimes forget that Ian is one of video game industry pioneers. Of course with recent shake-up at Eidos, Ian is also taking a more prominent role at the company once again. I thought it was funny to ... http://studio-nocturne.com/?p=36 I'm happy. I'll make this post short and sweet. We got strong interest for Bloody Bunny and 4p. As I'd hoped, a good number of Publishers really liked design for 4P and especially Bloody Bunny. We'll definitely need to go back, get concept doc in place, and follow-up. As for Housewife ... http://studio-nocturne.com/?p=33
