Presenting Twister MC

Made my first computer game with my daughter this weekend. It's not so much of game, but a digital announcer for playing Twister. A fun little project, but I think I was into it more than she was. We'll wait awhile before our next collaborative masterpiece.

Until then you can check out TwistMC. There's not much to look at, but it was a fun weekend.

• See it in action on Youtube.
• Grab the project from Google docs.

Wine easily handles Starcraft 2

Congratulations to the Wine developers. Wine 1.2 runs Starcraft 2 without any difficulties. The performance is a percentage slower. I'm sure performance would have actually been better than Windows, if the game came with an OpenGL renderer, like previous Blizzard games have.

Starcraft 2 on Ubuntu. Thanks to Wine 1.2.

Now in stores

Look at those shiney new boxes inside Best Buy. Only preorder, but the real deal is a week away.

Minifb 1.3

Released updates to Minifb. Now includes better support for running under Google's App Hosting. Thanks to kscott, who contributed almost all of the changes.
I think I worked out my problems with the pypi project listing as well.

It's been awhile since I looked at the world of Python libraries for Facebook. I see that Facebook released their own package for dealing with their graph. It looks like someone has also started a private new simplefacebook library as well.
