I got a job!

Today I accepted a co-op internship with Entre Computer Services as a Co-op developer working on a variety of apps and projects.   The co-op serves as part of my graduation requirement. With 6 months of co-op experience programming or developing games, I can finally graduate with a Bachelor's degree in Game Design.   Also it gives me money.   Money is nice.   I start on the 6th of July.   Also the place has tons of apartments which are like a kil

Long time no see!

Hey there Rock Raiders! I'm back at it again, Anything new or exciting happen?   Life's been kind of hectic after moving and finishing the school semester and finals, but I think things have finally settled. Most exciting thing that's happened recently is that I now work at a Lego store! Yahoo!  It's not an official Lego store (baww), but it's a franchise which sells both new and used Lego pieces and sets and minifigures! Super exciting, I start in a week!   I'

Assault Bay - Ratchet & Clank Fan Soundtrack

I don't know how many people here actually like Ratchet & Clank or its soundtrack, but you can listen to this even if you aren't a fan of that game. But mind you, this is quite different from my usual stuff.   This is a track supposed to mimic as much as possible the style of the music from the original trilogy (the third game in particular). Enjoy!

Ever have that feeling...

Ever have that feeling when tomorrows the day you get a huge Lego set with so many unique pieces, you get so hyped and start posting s*** in the chat. You abuse the caps lock feature and you know the last pieces to the greatest lego invention of the century are in it.  Well…      I'm feeling it

Conlang Blog (Hatsui Language)

Lately I've been working on a language I've dubbed Hatsui, which translates to summer, It is literally called the Summer language, or Language of Summer. It will be spoken by a people who speak a different language each season, Harvest (similar to Autumn), Summer, and Waterrise (similar to Spring). Each language will have similarly designed characters, but with different styles, to be similar to what the people experience in each season.   I haven't fully fleshed out the Conwolrd, thou

TeeVee Raiders United?

So RRU has reset, causing people to re-post the stuff they have lost in the event...   ...if this happens again in the next two weeks, and then a week or two after that, RRU's subtitle should be turned into "Tee Vee here, at your service".

Matrox Mystique Demo

I don't know much about the first PC that I owned and played games on, it was a custom PC that my dad built and he doesn't recall anything about it. For certain, though, I know what graphics card the PC had. It had a Matrox Mystique, a card from 1997 with which I played its exclusive version of MechWarrior 2, among other games.   I still have the driver installation disc, and dug up the beautiful video within demonstrating all the features of the card.

Shadowblaze - Gyrant

A new music! This time it's Dubstep. Still, I didn't make that kind of EDM that sounds all the same. This tune's got some interesting sounds, including an Erhu, a Hawaiian guitar and a voice used as an instrument.   So, enjoy!       I didn't post this right away because I couldn't get on RRU for some reason. But finally I got the problem fixed (thanks Xiron and Ayliffe!).

Return To Planet U Logo Reveal?! :O

Yo peeps!   I'm still not dead! 've been very busy with my musical projects (Producing and performing), and also with some other programming/game sideprojects (To gain experience for RtPu).

Arduino Gamepad!

So for my last project in Alternative Interfaces class, I made an Arduino gamepad! It has a compass sensor that detects tilt, three buttons, a rumble motor, and a switch to disable the rumble motor. It currently only works with Processing Serial games, but I'm hoping to get it working as a generic USB gamepad.

The truth about how to be great content creation

There are a decent number of spam blog posts here on RRU. 'The truth about how to be great content-marketing' is one of those articles. The truth is, the key to content creation is to steal other people's work. For some people, ideas are created from the heart or the deepest parts of the creator's mind. For others, ideas are the 20 floor extension to what was a well constructed house. Here are some other truths about creation creating all creators should create. You don't need an origi

Ben reviews 'Ratchet & Clank' - The movie, not the game

In recent times, a family member encouraged me to use the last of our free cinema tickets before they expired. After some consideration, I took the opportunity to watch 'Ratchet & Clank', in order to see what the movie industry could do with recreating a single game, rather than a movie about games overall...   Before I begin, I ought to clarify something important: I've never played or experienced a Ratchet & Clank game. You are probably thinking "Ben, seriously? You are

1 Year of Rock Raiding

I was looking through my profile and saw that i have been here for more then 1 year. WOW, I thought what I would do for the spectacular event even though I was inactive 4/5 of the time I was here and I hope to never do that again. I figured I would make a timeline. This will not be 100% accurate.     March 14- Created an account so i could ask where to find the Riegles mech mod   March 18 - February 4- Inactive   February 5- asked where i could find the Riegles

Shadowblaze - Dying Town

Finally, a new music! I have some more ready, so my schedule shouldn't be too random in these next few weeks.   This is an ambient track, inspired by Earthbound, as well as Borderlands (not too much though). It's got 16-bit limitations too!   The video should also be in a slightly higher quality, I did some stuff to make it look less blurry. I'm not sure if it worked out well or not.
