What’s Up…
I suppose it’s about time for me to announce a status report of what I’m up to lately…
First: I’ve picked up my Pixonomy project again, and while I’ve JUST put it on hold again, I’ve progressed the library with a refactoring and I just need to do some cross-platform hacking (to get it to compile nicely on OS X as a universal binary), and implement a couple of search functions to actually get it to a state where I can actually start programming client software in GTK+ or wxWidgets (I haven’t decided which) to demo the library.
Second: I’m currently taking a break from Pixonomy to work on a nifty font for OpenTTD. Since I noted that they finally implemented TrueType support and Unicode support in 0.5.0 (which I’d tried to implement before, but never really got around to), I figured I’d try my hand at something fun. After I get all the lower case characters done preliminarily, I’ll start adjusting the bounds and kerning by testing in game…
Third: Been watching some of the subs for this season, and I think Allison & Lillia does seem to have some promise, but we’ll see where it goes. Zettai Karen Children, though, is not so much up my alley. We’ll see where the other series I want to check out go (namely, Library War)… There’s a few others that might be good, too.
