Up to the announcement of the theme and the start of the comp I’d been drawing up ideas for almost every theme in the list (at least the ones i voted for) but when evolution was announce I was stumped.<\/p>\n

Looking at IRC, other people seemed to have the same reaction.<\/p>\n

This was a good thing, it’s a challenge and its why we’re all here (except for those that are here to make kitten-related games)<\/p>\n

It’s 11pm in Australia (Sydney) right now, and because of the timezone difference, I’ll be at work while most are finishing their works of art (no sarcasm).<\/p>\n

Anyway, I followed a few dead ends, had a few BSOD’s, and now I have a walk cycle for a guy (Ferdinand)\u00a0wielding\u00a0a carrot (there is more..):<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As always, I look forward to seeing what others make out of this theme<\/p>","time":"August 25th, 2012 6:02 am","title":"First Day (Australia)"}
