My First App

~ jakepascoe ~ 2 Comments

Im in the development of creating my first iPhone Application.

It is a soundboard app. It sounds simple, and I suppose it may not be as complex as other applications, but its a good start for me. What makes it different to other soundboards, is im hoping to incorporate ALL sounds into my app.

For example, you will find soundboard ont he app store dedicated to one movie or game. My application is going to have every sound, from every Movie/Tv Show/Game etc.

At the moment, all the sounds are found locally, but in the future, im hoping to make this app ‘server-sided’, which means the app will come with about a dozen sounds, and you can download the sounds you want, so it saves extensively amount of space on your iPhone.

At the moment it is not development for iPad.

FIFA Career Mode

Fifa 13 is starting to really bug me. Especially the career mode. After one season, starting the next, without fail, the game will freeze, and no matter what you do, this will keep happening. It is so frustrating, the fact that you have to pay $80+ for a game that doesn’t even work properly, I mean, come on EA. And don’t even get me started on the ref’s in game, I’ve spent too long shouting at my console in frustration for a clear penalty or free kick that has gone unnoticed.

Happy Birthday!

So yeah, im 17 Today. Happy Birthday to me.

I find that every birthday I dont really get excited, but instead I get one of those ‘Holy shit im 17 now’ moments and just feel awesome. It’s probably just me that gets them, but yeah.

 

EA

EA is a great company, and speaking as someone who plays countless hours of FIFA on Xbox, I love EA for making the game. Although on the other hand, EA has terrible Customer service, and terrible servers for hosting games. They should put money into getting working servers, rather then ‘fixing’ issues in the game. And the one thing that really peeves me about EA, is the amount of accounts you need. Just using their website requires about Three accounts, then they have the whole ‘Origins’  account. Its just another way to make money by selling your email address to companies, and then getting our accounts spammed. 

Come on EA. 

Another night well spent

So tonight I did a small amount of study, but enough during the day to feel confidant about my legal exam tomorrow. And of course I made some changes to my blog, which im loving.

During the holidays I hope to learn some CSS and buy a custom doman and implement my own theme :3

Programming

During the holidays when im not out enjoying myself, I will be learning some more programming languages. I’d like to start up by learning more about xcode and developing applications, because I have an alright grasp on Obj C already, so hopefully those skills can transfer.

I’d also like to learn some more CSS and PHP While im at it

Idea: GTHS App

~ jakepascoe ~ Leave a comment

When I get my act together and finish learning xcode, I want to create an app for the school.

My friend is already creating one for timetables, so it wont be like that.

My concept is a map, which shows you where you are in the school (and maybe other people too?), and you can select where you want to go too, and it will show you how to get there, and the relevant information.

I would love to make this. Goal for the end of the year.
