Welcome to the start of the Black Hat Blog.
Sitting in a prime viewing location here at Hatstand gaming I’m privy to all the strange work that happens here, in between coffee guzzling these guys are busy bees.
I’d have a better idea of where I was if I could see out of a window but we must be in some post modern bunker as there’s only daylight from above, at least the entertainment is good.
Plenty of interesting images on the walls, looks like a concept art bomb has gone off, things only stick where there’s no magic whiteboard, they claim that particular invention was a lifesaver, go figure.
There’s a 3D dragon hanging from the ceiling, maybe that’s a nod to Terry Pratchetts stuffed alligator hanging in a wizards study, lord knows they’re attempting to cook up some magic.
They’re working on an app called Tickletumm right now, it seems to be going well enough, they’re new to the process but learning fast, they were recording sound files for it the other night, gave me a chuckle, mostly they were giggling like children but hey that’s what they needed to record…cute giggles, and a few other sounds you normally need to apologise for after making.
The animations were a triumph, that little chap Speckleberry wiggling about on the screen.
If simple is a good thing then I think they’re on to a winner.
The progress for Lenlem is well underway too, that’s a way more complex animal.
Ok gotta go they’re back from lunch, I’ll be posting late or when I can get my mitts on the keyboard, but for now it’s back up on the Hatstand for me…Remember, keep it under your hat
