Well threatening to sack the builders seemed to do the trick… we almost have a complete Kitchen… in the endgame now!

There are two new screenshots of Doomdark’s Revenge on Icemark. They show
the new UI… as always subject to change.

Here are some screenshots showing the new UI. One also shows of the new sun. We’ve played around a lot with the effects layers. There are now different suns and moons depending on the time of day etc.

Well, it seems all my bad karma has come down on me at the same time. Firstly, the new publisher of our Club Manager games, filed for bankruptcy this week, owing us in excess of 150k! This has hit us hard while we were still trying to recover from the “problems” caused by the premier league two years ago. So at the moment we are fighting at work to keep the company afloat while trying to build 90 sku’s with just a few people.

I’ve got builders in at the moment; actually I’ve had them in for 2 months now which is the problem… and it doesn’t look like getting resolved anytime soon. A whole catalogue of disasters have occured with them, needless to say, I’ve spent a shit load of money and haven’t got what I want yet… and have been living in a shit hole for a lot of that time.

We’ve been without a kitchen and more importantly a cooker, for 2 weeks now; fun when you’ve got 2 small kids.

Lots of problems on the builder front!

Nearly all my appliances have died. Admittedly we were replacing them as part of the new kitchen… see the problem here!

A lot of my new appliances have had to be sent back with damages during transit!

My cold water tank has started overflowing… needs a new stop cock thingy…

My shower has started leaking again… so we have been on baths for the last week!

Got a parking ticket today; the two multi story car parks have been made into one while they refurbish… making parking a nightmare at work. Parked on the street at a pay and display… and forget about it!

The kettle gave up tonight, and with no way of boiling water other than a microwave… not great for coffee!

this list seems to go on and on…
