After almost 10 weeks of development we can proudly say that Yo is finally finished. On May 12th we gave our presentation explaining all the details of the game during Spring 2009 DemoDay at USC.

Finally, this week I have got a license to develop applications for the iPhone. So far I have not been able to create a lot of stuff but it is very interesting to see applications not just running in the simulator but also in the iPhone.
On January we will start the development of a new game that should be available by May’09.
I like Apple keynotes for two reasons: expectation and surprises. Yesterday wasn’t the exception, during the WWDC keynote people all over the world became happy, the new iPhone 3G will be finally available very soon and with the highly expected GPS. I am pretty sure it is going to be one of the most popular cellphones ever, good price, great features, awesome design. However, that was not THE surprise for me.
I want to congratulate Digital Legends, and especially Xavier Carrillo. Because, either if you like to play with your cellphones or not, we have to recognize that they are doing such a great job. Their games have a graphics quality that is one step over the rest of the companies, I am not just talking about Kroll (the new game), but also One.
