Wanted
After working on a lot of other projects, enjoying my life and the totally disapointing iPhone SDK (The greedy Apple). it is time to pick up the Quake 2 PSP project. It is nice to see that some people still waiting for the game. I do not know when I when will release the next version but I will start coding again soon.I never really gave up Quake 2 PSP, I just favor some other hobbies like improve my guitar skills, programming some highend 3d stuff and playing on the PS3.
Burnout Paradise is a really amazing game. The great single player titles are also fun, but only multiplayer games can offer this everlasting motivation. Burnout made the online mode so easy and perfectly integrated. So if you want to challange me or just collect some online challanges with me, join the chat.
I am also looking forward to Wipeout Pulse HD with a hopefully more addictive and feature packed multiplayer mode. Wipeout Pulse was a little bit poor in this case.
The greedy Apple
I was really excited when Apple announced the free, offical iPhone / iPod touch SDK yesterday. My girl friend has one of these wonderful devices. I downloaded the SDK today and played with the simulator until my girl was back from work so I can test on real hardware. But there is a little problem:
Codesign error: no certificate for identifier "iPhone Developer" was found in your keychain
They want to have money for being a registered iPhone developer, so I can sign my code for the device. I am so disappointed by Apple like never before. I had written such a nice game perfectly fitting to the touchscreen and now that.You have to pay for the iPod, you have to buy an Intel Mac and now I should pay for being a developer that wants to support this platform to make it more popular. Fuck you, you greedy idiots! I think a lot of people think the same way as me. So a lot of great programs will never be written or released.
My girlfriend is afraid of jailbreak the iPod, but it seems to be the only option.
