The one and only magazine for game development in Germany, Making Games, celebrates its fifth birthday this month and I had the honor to contribute an article to this anniversary issue. It’s a post mortem for The Deadline and deals with the issues of developing a game in only six weeks with the Unreal Development Kit.

Get your copy of Making Games and go to page 64 to read the whole story. Happy Birthday Making Games and keep up the good work!

The last days my girlfriend and I played DeathSpank and had a lot of fun with it! So much fun that she even was inspired to draw this:

As you probably already guessed she played as Sparkles while I was DeathSpank! Hero to the Downtrodden! Vanquisher of Evil! Dispenser of Justice!

P.S. I once slayed a dragon. Well… I didn’t really slay it and it wasn’t technically a dragon. What I meant to say is… that I once kicked a cat!
