The NPAR work is probably the most interesting (for me anyway), including a range of work that create NPAR images and video…

New Year Message 2011

Wishing you all a happy (and successful) new year for 2011.

I'm taking a break from working on a project report to write this - my January is looking pretty busy with lectures & labs for a new module to prepare (the previous lecturer retired, leaving nothing in a state that I can use), a research project to get back on track, some other work to write up, and a whole load of exams and coursework coming my way soon for marking... yikes.

December was largely a personal write…

Minecraft - First thoughts

I've been aware of minecraft for a while. Even had watched one of the basic gameplay videos, and knew that it was pulling in a lot of money.

Today I got to observe a few folk playing - and from their islands and tunnel complexes and items they'd build it became clear how rich the game is in terms of items to accumulate and play with and how well tuned it is as a virtual toy.

Endless click-on-this, click-on-that gameplay that allows you to invest near infinite amounts of time… Continue

Forum discussions no longer showing up on front page activity feed

For whatever reason, discussions in forums no longer seem to show up on the front page activity feed.
To try and redress this a bit, I've changed the forum page to show most recently discussed items instead of categories.
If I can plug a forum rss feed onto the front page I might change this back...

When does the new semester start? I've not received any info regarding this...

Is there any info on this site? I haven't come across anything, but I might just not be looking hard enough :P

At 11:47 on August 12, 2011, Kieran Nelson said…: Hey Daniel,

The job is totally awesome, better than I could have hoped! First title I worked on was the port of the Doctor Who iOS game, we were porting it to Windows 7 Touch for slate/tablet pcs. That was a nice easy introduction because it was built in XNA but it was proper 3D so got a bit more experience using matrices, vector maths and also got to do a bit of work with custom shaders in HLSL.

Currently we're working on Funpark Friends, our next big release for iOS. (It's already been announced and stuff) Should be soft launching nowish so it's all go in the office. It's weird working on a mac but it's written in objective C++ so at least that's a bonus. Learnt lots of crazy useful C++ things like event handlers, server connectivity, shared pointers and all sorts!

Think I'll be on this till I finish in a couple of weeks, would like to be involved in the other projects which are all very cool but I'll settle for having my name in the credits of two actual games :D

I'll give everyone a full report when I get back!

Yesterday, our first project as Outback Gaming went live;

I did a huge amount of work on the actual client application, but also did alot of polishing and bug fixing on the games themselves.

Now to find my way back to video game development.... ;)

I've got 3 released titles out there:

Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader (XBLA)
Invincible Tiger: The Legend of Han Tao (XBLA, PSN - Worlds first stereoscopic 3d game!)
Karaoke Revolution (Xbox 360, Playstation 3 & Wii)

And i'm currently working on a project natal release title! But not allowed to talk about it just yet. I'm the lead Natal programmer on this... moving up in the world lol
