Well, this is the first post to the Squadron Games blog. I have just registered the domain names but I have not set up the hosting yet. The first two games, Go and Chess, are code complete on the development server (i.e. my old laptop) so I just need to review the text and layout of the pages and do some server fettling.
I plan to use the blog to record technical aspects and any internal game issues. As I firm up bits of technology I will describe them here for the benefit of other developers. After all, I have benefited from other bloggers posts to get this far.
