Welcome to the Xona.com Blog (xona.com/blog).

This is one of the more personalized sections of Xona.com.  Expect to see articles, or posts, that do not fit the Xona.com's more professional article categories, such as our tech articles and coding articles.  There will inevitably be overlapping, and articles will exist in multiple places at once for your convenience!

Ultimately we do not wish to have our own web presence dictate what we can or cannot publish, so this blog is a solution to that censorship problem.  If there is something, anything (news, thoughts, ideas, etc.), we are interested in enough to publish, and there is no other place to put it, you will find it here.  Remember, this is personal!

You may have noticed that this introduction to the Xona.com Blog is not the first blog posting.  We are aware of this!  We started blogging before we had a blog to blog to.  Situation resolved!

About the Author:  I am Matthew Doucette of Xona Games, an award-winning team-of-two indie game development studio working on Xbox 360 and PC games.  We have released Decimation X, a 1-4 player shmup, which is Japan's #1 best selling #1 top rated Xbox LIVE Indie Game.  We are currently working on Duality ZF, a groundbreaking 1-4 player shmup.  It features dual play, the ability to control two fighters at once, a beautiful electronic Imphenzia soundtrack, and a massively upgradable 32-stage spread/laser weapon system.  4 player dual play allows up to eight fighters at once.  Many of these features are never before seen shoot'em up firsts.  Check out our Duality ZF trailer and help spread the word with our official dualityzf.com website.  Coming soon to Xbox LIVE Indie Games.

*Also known as a shmup or 2D shooter.
