Done Pondering, Shifting Gears

As my last post detailed (a couple of months ago), I came to a crossroads and have figured out a direction to go.  The games I hope to make in the near future are not very complex and do not require amazing graphics capabilities.  So, I will take this blog down a more generic path in 2D game programming.

Although I plan to use VB.Net and the .Net framework's built-in 2D Graphics capabilities, I hope to keep things at a more drawing-system-agnostic level.  This can't be done completely, because your choice drawing system determines a lot of the detailed options available for drawing things ... and that will determine how to track and organize some data.

My rate of posting will not be very fast either.  If I can average a post or two per month, then I'll be a happy guy.  If I get some games completed, I'll be even happier! ;-)

So, keep an eye out and see what I have to offer here.

Thanks for reading!
