zylum’s Indie Game Development Blog

This is the first game I created for my blog. The first couple of games will be chosen such that they can be played on a cellphone as I am contemplating learning J2ME or maybe the new iPhone SDK. Dad’s Puzzle in particular would be best suited for an iPhone due to the mechanics of sliding the tiles/furniture around.

Hello everyone! Welcome to my game blog. The purpose of this blog is to showcase games that I have developed in java as well as provide the source code.

What I will usually do is code up the game mechanics to showcase the game play, but will usually omit any sort of introduction/game over screen or fancy graphics.

I already have two games complete and will post them shortly. If you have any suggestions as to what game I should code up next or if you enjoyed playing any of the games I created, please feel free to leave a comment.
