Kingdoms Game

   It's been a while again, but I do mean to post more often. I got exams and stuff happening at the moment however, so it's not that easy to do so...

 So I decided to write this post so you could find out a bit of what I'm doing. I got in touch with this guy through GameDev who was looking for some help with an RPG he's making. I got on board and now I'm helping him out with some small things on the site. It's a pretty good game I must say, and fair deuce to Mutant who created the whole thing himself from scratch! A fine achievement might I say!

   So the game is found at www.kingdoms-game.com and I'd encourage _everyone_ to check it out!

   Anyways, Back soon,

Updates

   So first of all, an apology. I'm sooo sorry but I've just had so much stuff going on right now. School exams, family stuff and more but I'm back now.

   So first of all, OS. I've gone from the Debian  beta distro back to Fedora 13.
Learning about networking and stuff like that at the minute and I finally made a start on image programming with C++ using SDL. LazyFoo is the best resource going for learning SDL in my opinion!

   Making a Perl IRC bot for part of a competition *spoiler!!!* but I can't really say anything about that at the moment... Needless to say, it's something you'll hear more about in the future!

   I've also started on some free-lance work using vWorker. Seems good but I don't like having to under-bid on everything to gain some rep...

   Anyways, I have a few ideas coming up for the future. It involves  bit of game programming with C++ and SDL, a bit of AI in Perl *spoiler!!!* and who knows what else ;P

   I'll be back soon!

Perl IRC Bot

    So I've decided to learn Perl. It seems like a good language to learn as it's what is usually used for small hacks and quick and dirty scripts. So after the usual small, useless projects (Calculator, Guess my Number, etc) I decided to make an IRC bot.
    I spend most of my day on IRC channels. Mostly #HBH on hellboundhackers.org! I decided to make a bot to log everything while I'm away at school (Which starts tomorrow :() I've made good progress and all I have to do is make it connect via ssl and it'll be ready to go! Some of it's functionality is giving/taking ops, saving all conversations to a file, greeting and saying goodbye to people and sleeping and waking.
    Anywhoo, that's all with me! If anyone knows about connecting via ssl in perl, the comments are open.
