 Hello all! We'll be making a major announcement on our website very soon so be sure to check it out! I've just updated some of the info on the website.  You can see a list of the recent changes at the top of the homepage.  If you haven't seen the video game trailer parody video we made be sure to check it out... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_cPB1Oy5KI One thing I'm excited about is our new 'Merch' tab.  We are using RedBubble for our merchandise because our research showed that the quality of their shirts is the best around.  You can see all our designs by clinking the link below and then hitting 'Explore Designs'.  https://www.redbubble.com/people/JWX-Software/shop We'll be adding more cool designs from time-to-time so keep the link handy.   Let us know if there is a character or design you'd like to see. -Robert

JWX Software 2020 update

2020 has been a crazy year.  JWX software was negatively affected by several things in 2020 and we are working hard to overcome our difficulties.  At some point in the future I may go into details about these things but they have kept us very busy and hurt our progress on our game Laser Splat.  We are still working on the game and still hope to release it, but we haven't met our time goals.  (I just played the game yesterday for about one hour and I had a great time playing it.  It is fun!!!   I hope you can experience it soon too.) I also created a video that I will upload to Youtube around Wednesday of next week that I think you will find funny.  Be sure to check our blog or our website for details next week! Finally, I'll try to update the blog more often in the future so check back every week for the latest news. -Robert

Behind The Scenes - Creating a Shorter Trailer Video

Image
Wow, editing the 'extended version' of the Laser Splat game trailer video down to a shorter video took WAY longer than I thought it would.  It was also WAY harder than I thought.  I ran into many difficulties...including me accidentally deleting one of the gameplay footage videos....the one that was actually the hardest to create....ouch!   I had to start over on that footage from the beginning.   The original trailer video (which i call the 'extended edition' because it is about 2 minutes) long took me 38 versions to get to the final versions.   That means thought I had the video looking pretty good in the editor, produced it as an .avi, and did a final edit on that to trim the end point....then, after viewing the final edit of it over and over, I saw some things that weren't right or that could be improved.....and went back to editing.   On the 'extended version' I did that 38 times.      This 'simple edit' of that video took me 31 tries.   U
