Mystery game reveal

So yeah yeah, planking is dumb, but surely that makes it the all the more challenging to make a decent game, right? Well, as it turns out I am always up for a challenge.

So I think it turned out OK. It could use varying levels of polish, but what are you going to do on such a small timeframe eh? I guess what's more important is that it lets the bosses know just what we can do if we're working on something interesting... and plus I think we all learnt a little about ourselves too. I, for one, learnt that I am a delicate and unique snowflake.

Aaaanyway, if you want to check it out (and my amateur voice over work), go here: http://www.plankdgame.com/

If you think it doesn't suck, please go here (http://www.facebook.com/plankdgame) and "Like" it. The more likes we get the more likely it is we'll actually get to tidy it up and and add new levels and characters (which is what everyone here wants to do).

The worst detective team in history.

So, work has again been too busy this last week to really have a chance to do anything again... So instead I'm posting something from work. Behold part of what I spent the last weekend crunching on. We'll be releasing tomorrow apparently (which is just nuts) so this can act as a teaser, but people who know me way want to keep an eye out for the sole purpose of listening to me embarrass myself. Digitally.

And now for something completely different...



I've been pretty quiet over the last couple of weeks because work is getting really busy again... But that doesn't have to mean I have to spend all my time coding loot tables. I finally got around to picking up a USB-to-MIDI cable, so I figured "why not give that music thing ago again?"

So this is something at least. It could possibly be in one of the games we're currently making... But it was just fun to write stuff again anyway. The game a zombie type affair, but the feeling I was going for with this track was "Trapped in the toilet at a menacing rave party" with a side order of "Scooby and Shaggy stuttering while trying to trying to explain there's a monster standing behind Thelma, Daphne and Fred", but that ended up being smoothed out a little by the end of it.

Another bonus, I finally have a video in my youtube account! Yay web2.0!

Wallpapers of our disaffected future

I got a new phone and I wanted to personalize it a little so I banged up this wallpaper out of whatever I had around.

And now it's late.
