The start of November is always a busy time for me and my family. We have 5 birthdays between Nov 2nd and 11th. Due to that not much progress has been made. However Nov 11th is my Birthday so I now have a bunch of new projects.
The Deep Racer Car I won back at the 2019 NYC AWS Summit finally showed up this week. Pair that with a coworker of mine going to Re-Invent and my interest in Deep Racer is growing again. Hopefully over the next few weeks we will get the car running and a Physical track for us to race on. Expect a few posts coming up talking about that adventure.
Also one of my Birthday gifts was a Raspberry Pi4. I plan on setting it up with RetroPie and building a full size emulator arcade cabinet so I have that and the pinball machine setup down in the basement. I was able to get RetroPie setup already and I am fine tuning the configuration files to work in a way I want.
Along with all this Hotline Space and Card Count are still going. Tonight, I was able to get interchangeable guns working in Hotline Space. While doing all this, my friend is getting together some art for Card Count to replace my programmer art.
Stay tuned for lots of fun posts about interesting things that are not just game development over the next few months.
