BAFTA Play

BAFTA Scotland recently hosted an evening showcasing Scottish games talent, and I took the opportunity to pop along and see what was on offer. There was a really diverse selection available to play, including award-winning games from the 2013 Scottish Game Jam and the BAFTA Scotland New Talent Awards. I was struck by the innovation […]

Bunny vs. Bunny

As promised, here’s a quick video of our first Bunny Vengeance rapid prototype. For demo purposes I’m using a clone of our hero as the opponent. I’m still waiting for plenty more animation from Alex, which I’ll hopefully drop-in over the weekend. But for the time being you can see in the video above: a […]

Inferno for Xbox 360

My buddy Alex is probably the best programmer in the world! He has a particular passion for all languages containing the letter ‘C’ and he’s so good that he bashes games together during his lunch breaks! And here’s one of them. Inferno is Alex’s first Xbox 360 game, which you can pick up from the […]
