As explained in a previous post, I will soon be moving to Europe, precisely England.

This means that all my current resources (time and money) are being dedicated to the move, with little to no time for updates or work on any of my projects… Needless to say, this makes me real sad!

But what does all this mean for Colinus.net?

This blog has been around for a while now and I have to admit it’s been a great ride. The site will stick around for much, much longer, but with a completely different purpose. Starting in September, Colinus.net will be relaunching to become my very own personal blog. This means that all kind of topics will be discussed, including my own life, music, the videogame industry and even game development. However, it will stop serving the purpose of a devblog. Any new game announcements/updates will be done through a different site… But it’s a bit too early to talk about that one! :D

On August the 5th the blog will be closed until the redesign is done. A warning page will appear when you access the site reminding you of the temporary down time. All of your accounts and usernames will remain intact so whenever the site does come back up you’ll be logged in and ready to go! :D

I really want to take this opportunity to thank every single fan out there that has visited and commented on the blog in the past (almost!) 2 years. Thank you so very much for all of your support, insight and ideas. Without you, this blog, my games or even myself would be nowhere. It’s thanks to you that I am now ready to move on with the biggest step in my adult life and dedicate myself to full time game development.

I will always keep all of you in mind in the making of each and every project. Thank you so much and stay tuned, I’m not going to disappear any time soon! :D

I feel like I owe everyone an apology since I’ve sort of disappeared lately…

Unfortunately, life has caught up with me and for the past month I’ve had absolutely no time to work on AKS2 or any other projects for that matter. Any free time I had was thrown into my current hobby of Street Fighter, since this weekend I will be participating at EVO, the biggest fighting game tournament in the world! :D

Fortunately, good news is on the horizon.

I’m actually very happy to announce that sometime next month I will be permanently moving to England from the USA. I’m leaving California and my current job to go live in the UK and get married… : )

What will I be doing there for a living? Well that’s something I can hopefully announce in a near future…

So once again, sorry if the updates are really slow right now… Once I’ve moved and settled in there’s going to be LOTS of things I’d love to talk to you about… One of them in particular is a very exciting project for AKS fans… I’ve shot the proposal to several (secret!) long time fans and so far the response has been overwhelmingly positive… :D

My entire weekend has been destroyed by a massive headache that just doesn’t want to go away! : (

I’m working on so many things at once lately, it’s probably a good thing that I took some time to rest these last couple of days. I’m going to be back on the blog and be more active in the next week or so, so be sure to check back later!

How was your weekend?

Wow!

Sorry for the long delay in news everybody, this past week has been extreme to say the least! I participated at E3, worked extreme amounts at my day job and also started organizing a big move I’ll be doing… Phew!

Fortunately things have calmed down quite a bit. I can finally resume work on CU5 for “A Knight’s Story 2″. There’s some new things I’d like to add to it that hopefully you’ll like!

I’m also swamped with concept work on some new games… All I can say is they’re going to be pretty exciting! :D

One of them in particular I think you guys will enjoy… But that’s gonna be a long time from now!

And about that… If all goes well I have a pretty big announcement for you guys coming next week, fingers crossed!

And it’s finally here. The biggest and most important yearly gaming convention has begun with E3 2010.

It’s been extremely crazy for me lately and I’ve been working so hard on my full time job that I’ve had no time to work on CU5. I’m sorry about that. Once E3 is over I will have plenty of free time and I can finally finish it up and give you guys the Gold Shoppe.

Meanwhile, on Thursday I will give you some info on CU6 which should be out sometime in August. That will be a huge month for me and I’m really excited to tell you about my future projects, it will happen in August more or less.

How was your weekend and how psyched are you for E3? Any early impressions?

Are you an artist or aspiring artist that’s always dreamed of working on videogames? Do you have a friend or family member that fits that description? Well this is your chance to make that dream a reality!

I’m in dire need of an artist for several of my future game projects. These would all be paid gigs part of a series of videogames for a super secret project of mine… Interested?

Drop me a line with some of your art to colino@colinus.net! I’m interested in art of various influences and styles, so don’t be afraid to send me some of your material! Also feel free to link me to any blogs/websites/deviant art pages that you may have.

Please send this out to all of your artist friends!

Hey everybody! Sorry for the very slow updates lately… I’ve been extremely busy with several important projects! Some of them are turning out pretty great! So much work and so little time… @_@

CU5 is coming along pretty well and you should expect to see a full feature list next week. I’m also working on a new contest which will decide some of the content for CU6! A new poll will be going up today in regards to that…

I know I’m late, but how was your weekend?

I’ve been anxious to play Super Mario Galaxy 2 all weekend. Unfortunately my Wii’s disc reader is broken so I ended up not purchasing it today… If I’m lucky I’ll get to play it tomorrow… Fingers crossed! I also trained up on Super SF4 and went to the Japanese super market to buy some goodies.

Progress on CU5 is going well, pre-coding is almost done (that’s the part where I write everything on a paper notepad before coding the actual update) and actual programming should start early this week, the turnaround on this update won’t be very long. I might even make it by E3, making it my own little E3 announcement I guess… :D

Speaking of announcements, oh my, I’ve got a big one. I’m not quite ready for it yet, but hopefully it will be exciting for all of you. This announcement regards myself, my games and even this website. But I don’t want to get ahead of myself…

How was your weekend?

Starting at 2:50 , this song has my favorite out-ro ever :D
