Remembering Glitch makes me sad, largely. I've been trying to work on things that put its art to use but I haven't gotten very far off the ground yet aside from little things like the piggy petter and the race track.
It turns out there are at least two completely distinct groups that are attempting a full reboot of the game as it was when it shut down. I don't know how far along they are, but maybe one day it will be just like my recurring dreams and I'll wake up to find that I can log in to the game again.
Of course with all of the source code released that may be more possible than it was before, but I know that one of the teams was working on it well before that. They were planning on making the game entirely in HTML/javascript rather than employing Flash.
These are some pretty big projects while my own little project for using Glitch art has just been restarted from scratch as I get better and better at javascript coding. Sandcastle Builder has given me a big boost as well, really showing me what a stupid clicking browser game can do.
Anyway, maybe I'll start playing some other things again, but for now it's coding and clicking on kitties.
yeah.
