Haven’t posted here in a while. That doesn’t mean I am dead though, it just means that a) I’ve been busy, and b) I’m a terrible blogger. Recently, there’s been much more activity on my Twitter, because one doesn’t need to think too much before writing 140 characters.
Here’s a few experiments I’ve made recently:
Insects. All [...]
The new game! Play it here.
Dirk Valentine
Dirk Valentine is developed by Nitrome, so its beautiful pixel art is only to be expected. It also has a really cool steampunk setting. The gameplay is pretty fun too, with a nice mix of action and puzzles. You play as Dirk Valentine, a commando on a mission to rescue Queen Victoria. You are [...]
Finally, Paul Robertson’s (the guy who made Pirate Baby’s Cabana Street Fight Battle 2006) new animation is here! It’s probably the most stupid thing I’ve seen all week, and the most awesome.
Grab it here! Also, watch the trailer if you’re feeling unsure. And here’s a torrent for when Paul’s hosting goes down.
edit:
The full animation in [...]
Here’s a wallpaper made of aliens from my generator:
Only for iMac size screens though.
Also, a random comic generator I made about a year ago: here.
And two quick and largely unsuccessful game prototypes I made a couple of days ago as a base to learn box2dFlash from:
Shopping Smash: Use arrow keys. Try to keep your shopping [...]
Play Iron Dukes
Iron Dukes is pretty solid as flash games go. It has a wonderfully silly steampunk setting, obviously inspired by Mike Mignola’s Amazing Screw on Head or Andy Helm’s (probably dead) Fearless Grigs. It’s a finalist for this year’s IGF, in the Best Web Game category.
Basically Iron Dukes is a simple, accessible RPG with [...]

Here’s the characters from the game I’m working on. Was nice to get back into just plain drawing. Haven’t done that for a while, and I was a bit rusty when starting… but today I was busting out a character in 30 minutes! Still not fast enough, but getting better.
Here’s a little game that’ll distract you for a few minutes this morning. In Samurai Movers, you use a trebuchet to load furniture into an old lady’s house. It’s got some nice (box2dFlash-powered) rigid body physics — so when you launch the table or fridge, expect it to bring the whole house down around it. [...]
I’ve looked at Unity before, but I hadn’t really seen anything really worth the download of the plugin yet, let alone learn the application. Velociraptor Safari is certainly worth it though! The game is just a little download and runs in your browers but it’s in full 3D and plays just like a real game [...]
They’ll destroy you in my new game! Hopefully I’ll have it done within a couple of weeks. Maybe.
