    I prototyped this iPhone game as part of a feasibility study at the Scottish Centre for Enabling Technologists. I was required to investigate the possibility of using an iPhone app to market a unique pool table concept.

    "Spaceport" was a working demo created as part of Dare To Be Digital 2006, by a team of 6 of us, in 10 weeks (full time). I was responsible for developing a bespoke gameplay scripting system, and for maintaing some of the asset pipeline tools. Sadly, the game itself is not available, but there are plenty of screenshots and videos!

GameMaker

These are games which I made using a hobbyist tool called GameMaker (v7.0). It is an excellent tool, as it allows aspiring developers to use everything from a drag-drop interface, through to fully-fledged coding (or any combination thereof).

    I created this game in just a couple of days, as I wanted to try creating a simple board game with artificial intelligence (it features a simple minimax AI). Some artwork was contributed by Tommy Kraft, and sounds came from SoundSnap.com.

    This game was created as a collaborative effort with the guys at ProjectNReSource.com. It was the only game we ever produced before the site was refocused to concentrate on machinima. I did all the coding for this project, and others organised art and audio. It was largely experimental in seeing how well GameMaker would handle an RTS-style game.
