Hi people,
I’m not sure if it’s common around here, but I thought I’d introduce myself after having lurked silently in the forum for some time. My name is Thomas Finnerup, I’m 42 and from Denmark, and I’m a Blitz addict.
I’ve previously bought BlitzPlus, BlitzMax, and Monkey, and I’ve just started throwing money at Monkey 2. I’m not actually using it yet, though I’ve briefly tried it a few times over the last couple of years. I’m very impressed with its progress. Awesome IDE, too.
I’ve made various simple games (mostly prototypes as I hardly ever seem to finish anything; short attention span, anyone?), but the only one I feel is worth mentioning is my Boulder Dash clone, Duck Dash. It’s made in BlitzMax, but I’m almost done converting/re-writing it in Monkey. I’m going to convert it to Monkey 2 at some point in the future, probably later this year.
I’m looking forward to using Monkey 2 and getting to know all you nice people.
