Tired. Very tired. Working on the 10-20 stuff last night; it’s going well, and the money’s good. Gotta keep it going until we get the site looking tight. I have a meeting with the Gebran folks tonight to see what they need; hopefully there’ll be another month or so of development on their product/s to keep the freelance going. So far we’ve billed and been paid and there’s another invoice out, with the promise of work in the summer-fall for Oakleaf.
I watched the rest of the Aliens special edition DVD the other night and I’ve been thinking about it ever since—it was my favorite movie in 1986 or 87 when it came out, and it hasn’t aged too badly. Probably also because I played the game yesterday—it’s hard. And frightening as hell- the movement on the aliens is a lot faster in the game, and they mess you up quickly. It’s hard to play as the Marine, and you get a real sense of how hard it would be to stay alive without a team with you (which is how the demo sends you out.)
