I had started one but never finished it because it was getting complicated. I might roll everything back and start fresh. At least fresh for that tutorial. Now that I have the old XNA tutorials again I will start pulling those in rather than doing everything from scratch. It should speed things up a bit. Though, what I was working from is more advanced than Eyes of the Dragon XNA so it&#8217;s hard to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My Projects<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the rest of the day I will be working on my projects, Quintessential Duels in particular. It is close to being done and I&#8217;d like to see it in circulation. I will be distributing it through itch.io and on the Google Play Store. If it takes off I will port it to Mac and iOS. I&#8217;d also like to port it to the different Linux distributions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Things are moving along at a good pace. The blog is really coming along nicely since Christmas. I&#8217;ve published a number of tutorials, especially in the MonoGame For The Absolute Beginner series. I&#8217;m considering moving them to a page of their own. If the number continues to grow I probably will. So, keep checking back. I have more tutorial goodness planned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have just uploaded the fourth tutorial in the Dragon&#8217;s Claw tutorial series to the blog.
