Java Mad

I've really been in gear lately, productivity on the coding side of things has been way up. Unfortunately for Kriegsland however, not much of this productivity has come its way.

I've just got my SCJP qualification and as a result have been Java crazy for the past few weeks, building a Slick2D based game which my brother should be doing the art for and as I'm speaking I'm downloading the needed components for a go at an EJB3.0 driven JBOSS based application. God knows how that will turn out but I'm bloody excited about it right now.

JBOSS is where I started in a way, my fourth year project was a SEAM implementation and my 6 Month internship had me working with it without me having a clue what was going on. I really want to return there now and finally understand it all implicitly.

So, sadly Kriegsland is on the back burner, and my reflection based implementation will have to wait for the moment. I did have an idea for a Slick2D based client tying back into my MySQL database with PHP providing an access anywhere front end, much like Pox Nora has but that'll have to wait until my Slick2D engine's completion which won't be for a while. The game I am working on is zombie based and will have a strategic map much like Total War, I've got clicking and dragging working and everything.

So I might post here about Slick2D in the near future, it really is a fantastic little library and it's been a joy to use so far. Its website. Until then, hold tight Kriegsland fans, this project can never die! It's undead!
