Website to host my games

My new website is up and running yay Just written the code and uploaded it tonight.

It's where I'm going to put my games I develop so they can be downloaded by anyone wanting to play them.

There's no games on the site right now, but I've been working on the graphics for my first new game which is going to be based on a matching game like pairs but with a few more options and it'll keep the record for the lowest number of turns to complete it.

You can find my website at: http://www.gamecoder.comze.com/

Making games again on my PC

I've made a decision to start making games again on my PC. It's been quite a while since I did any coding, thinking about it probably over 2 years ago now. I've always liked programming but for no particular reason I just got out of the habit of doing it. Anyway that's going to change now, game progamming is something I'm going to start doing more often.

I just make games up for myself to play, sometimes I see another game which I like and I try to make something similar, or just make them up out of my imagination. The types of game I like to play are games that you can start playing straight away, very simple to learn (you don't have to read an encyclopeadia and remember it all to enjoy the game), and you don't need 3 hands to be pushing loads of buttons either lol.

Simple games that you can just play for 5 minutes if you want to pass a bit of time, that's what I'm going to make :)

Now for the technical bit:
Programming Language: C
Game Library: Allegro
