I never thought it'd be the case, but creating this video stuff is much simpler than creating a written tutorial. And most likely, more people will benefit from it than any written document. So here it is. This time, even with a reasonable screen resolution, aspect ratio (not 1400x1050), and the mouse cursor is visible.

For quite a long time, I've been thinking about creating a tutorial for WUDSN IDE, and relatively early, I decided to go for a video-based approach. Today, I finally took the courage and made the first part with a basic overview of the IDE and how it is installed and used.

Regular ABBUC contests are exclusively for ABBUC club members. But since there are also a lot of Atari people outside the ABBUC community, the ABBUC decided to honor people and products outside the club in a non-monetary way. The so-called ABBUC Awards are awarded for the best application, game, demo, coder, sound, graphics, and Atari-related PC program. A jury takes the decision. This year, I was part of the jury - but since I was also nominated in two categories, I was not allowed to vote in these categories. I'm even more proud to be awarded in both categories: best demo and best coder. Congratulations also to the other winners!

After quite a long break, Tigerduck and I attended the HomeCon this weekend. Finally, I found the time to test my 1st price from the Silly Venture competition. It contains a VBXE expansion, which acts both as memory and graphics expansion. Unfortunately, the additional plug was not standard VGA, so I could not run VBXE games. But the memory expansion works fine, so that I could test one of my forthcoming demos on the hardware. We played Robix in two-player mode the rest of the day and finally defeated the end boss of the first level. And as a particular highlight, I won Rally Speedway against Tigerduck this time. The photo was taken by Boris, the issuer of the RETURN magazine, to whom I gave a short presentation on WUDSN IDE. Maybe I'll create an article for the mag with a quick tutorial on the IDE.

My "Silly Things" demo scored 1st place in the 8-bit demo competition at Silly Venture 2010. And I remember that when Grey/MSB told me that LaResistance would also contribute an entry to the competition, my thought was, "OK, it's simply no use". I finally managed to create a fixed version and the "Fast Mix" of the demo, which contains even faster and smoother effects. So, if you like it, I'd be delighted to get your feedback on Pouet, where you can also find the download with all versions. Here is the recording of the fast mix.
