Site change again.

I swear, I change the site around more than I actually post here. Bleh. When I’m rich, I figure I can just pay someone else to write for me or something.

Anyways, Inkman’s official name is Nub In The Sheeple Factory now.

It’s almost done. Music hasn’t even been started, and the levels aren’t finished yet, but functionally, it’s done. Currently working on a desktop version of the level editor, because I can only get about 3 levels done at a time before the battery on my phone dies. Bah.

Nub v1.2b gameplay video:

How you doin?

…Just discovered that it’s… difficult to put ads into android games… and pretty much impossible to do without screwing the screen size, which stops you from having any viewable space with the UI included, which defeats the whole “game” thing…

So… it would seem that my efforts to make android games are pretty much useless, since I can’t monetize the apps with ads,… and since the android market requires people to jump through flaming hoops to pay for apps, and they really don’t like doing it, there’s like… no way to make money at it.

Unless you’re rich enough to hire people to do weird ways around the problem. Or are skilled enough to do it yourself.

I am neither.

So I feel like an utter failure. Like all my time was worthless, pointless, and whatever else.

…Right now, my life feels like a gaping black hole. I’m in a pretty dark place.

…Hopefully I’ll feel better soon.

Seriously, try it.

For dinner tonight, I made this jalopy rice thing. And… it was awesome. So, just for my sake, and maybe the sake of anyone who likes good, simple food, here ya go:

2 tablespoon oil (vegetable, canola, whatever)
3 tablespoon water
1 handful of Tyson Grilled and Ready fully season beef strips
1 package Uncle Ben’s Santa Fe Ready Whole Grain Medley
half a (15oz) can of black beans, drained (about 7-8 oz)

1: Toss beef strips, water, and oil into skillet, and cover until heated. while doing that,
2: Make the rice in the microwave, how it says.
3: When beef is thawed and heated, cut it into bits with whatever implement you’re using.
4: Toss in the black beans, warm them up for a minute or so.
5: Take the rice out of the microwave and toss it in the skillet.
6: Stir it up, let the liquid reduce (if there is any). Eat. Enjoy.

Seriously, the Uncle Ben’s Whole Grain Santa Fe stuff is friggin awesome. Both flavor and texture. The whole thing ends up costing like… $4.00 for the whole skillet, which is two meals if you don’t binge. BAM! LUNCH AND DINNER!!
