As no one read this blog, I’ve never really bothered to keep it up todate. Still anyone that knows me would know that I have a small hobby of making indie computer games. Where are the games? Well very few have ever been made past the alpha stage.
The main reason for this is that the biggest problem I have always found is trying to find a programmer to work with. Due to my animation background, even though I could get the art assets produced but I was never to really get the games off the ground. The major reason of course was due to the absence of what I now realise is the indispensable man. The programmer. This might seam so obvious but it took me ages to work out the simplest rule.. it doesn’t matter how good your idea is if you can not implement it.
Anyway to that end I have decide to enrol in a degree with a major in programming. Learn this stuff for myself and hopefully allow some of my ideas to become something more than just well thought out.
I am attending Qantm Collage, a international school that is a off shoot of a international film and sound school. The Qantm variant is focused on animation, special effects, games and new media type stuff rather than sound and traditional visual mediums, like film and TV. Anyway I’ll be doing a Bachelor of Interactive Entertainment Majoring in Games Programming
So to that end and also form some urging form the teacher, as part of my communication portion of the degree, I have decide to resurrect this blog to record my progress though my degree and any other musings I may wish to offer.
See you guys around!
