Tentacle Games

I've just registered tentaclegames.co.uk as a domain for a game I'm working on. I've been picking the brains of various Build Brighton folk, and watching lots of YouTube clips, and seem to have settled on either Cocos2D, or Corona... with Corona looking much more fun...
I'll post details when I get the first build done.

hand cramps

It's been so long since I've used my tablet, that I have slight hand cramps after working up these images...
New Cintiq13HD is looking very tempting...

Game graphic goodness

I haven't been posting here for a while, as I'm working on a my CS degree, in fact I've just started the final project, in which I'm planning to investigate cross platform mobile app (game) development.
I'm looking at a number of different cross platform frameworks, like Cocos2D-X, and aim to see how easy it is to maintain one central code base, whilst porting apps to Android and iOS.
To do this I thought I'd build a simple "infinite runner" or "platformer" using the characters I designed for the Ninja Dinosaur vs Pirate Robot book.

St George's Day

Just back from the village green singing Jerusalem, thought it worth highlighting the #24HCD story I did on St George and the dragon...

From this year forward 24HCD will take place on the first Saturday in October, so this year it's on  the 5th October. More details on www.24hourcomicsday.com 
I'm wondering whether we could run an event with BuildBrighton and Dave's Comics in Brighton?

LAZZORS

I did my Laser training at #BuildBrighton last night and now know how not to set things on fire, or break the expensive laser cutter.
I had a little play with the scarily name "Retina Engrave" app, and burnt a pirate robot onto some plywood... very slowly.

Skaar son of hulk

Twenty minute break from other work to have a bash at this weeks ten ton sketch challenge... Skaar son of hulk, who seems to be much like a kind of hipster hulk with tribal tats and silky long hair.
