I'm still not able to tell you about the new news. Yes, there is some news, and yes, it is new, but I can't tell you about it.

The lovely chaps at X360 Magazine have posted an interview with my good self that involves a lot of me griping. On the plus side, I do use the phrase "gibbering talentless 7-year-old."

If you're interested in all things audio, don't forget to check out Owen Price's Audious blog and podcasts (back in my day we called them "MP3s on the internet"), as he talks about some of the original sound design and implementation in Clover.

The rather nice Colette Bennett from Destructoid gave Clover a pretty respectable 7/10. Considering they gave Ghostbusters 7.5, Prototype 7 and inFAMOUS 6, I'll definitely take that!

I'm sure she won't mind me mentioning that in a separate email she highlighted just how ace the music is. We'll have to sort making that available...

Avid readers will know I had an exciting meeting this morning. It was indeed exciting, and it did indeed have a very positive outcome. However, to borrow an oft-used phrase by PR people that don't want to tell you something just yet, there's nothing to announce at this time.

I now have to go and teach. I've just bought a load of padded sticks and swords for the club; I wonder how many I can break over people's heads in the first session...

I've been a bit quiet lately - been moving flat, and so haven't had access to broadband. It's been painful, to say the least.

I've just finished contributing to another print feature on the state of Community Games, and there are a few Clover reviews in the works.

Best of all I've got a meeting next week that I'm very excited to be attending. Naturally I can't tell you what it's about, but suffice to say if you like Clover then you'll be pleased if everything comes off.

XboxHornet have posted a new interview with my good self, mostly regarding Clover. Go take a looksee, and keep spreading the good word!

Tomorrow at 9:40am BST, I'll be doing a live interview with BBC Radio South about Clover. Do please listen in and wait for me to accidentally say something inappropriate! They'll be using some of the game's music and sound effects too.

The Observer's review on Sunday was rather spiffing. "Truly exciting, and really does stimulate the imagination" wrote Will Freeman, whom you should all buy a pint. I wonder if he's related to Gordon? Does he have a crowbar?

Clover will be getting a review in this week's Sunday Observer. This is the first time that an Xbox LIVE Community Game has been reviewed in the mainstream national press, so the game has clearly impressed.

Make sure you pick up a copy - it's going to be on the back of the telly guide. Not quite the front page, but we'll save that for the next game!
