I was trying to resist posting this announcement until we were a little closer to being done, but I got permission from Adam to start blabbing about it, so here goes:
WE'RE MAKING A VIDEO GAME!
My awesome husband is programming his heart out as we speak, and I'm doing the graphics stuff. He bought the domain name, so I guess that means it's official. The tentative plan is for a knitting-themed game to be played on the PC with an XBOX 360 controller. In the spirit of guitar hero, except instead of notes flying at you, you get stitch commands. We're also going to try to have people be able to "write" their own patterns and have a "fabric" graphic to show off when they compete it.
Now, we're not talking Halo-caliber animations or anything, so don't get your hopes up. Or maybe do get your hopes up, who knows, this could end up being the coolest thing EVER! Hopefully it will be ready to play in early '08.
