I build software. The best place to find me is on Interface System
Just a quick note to let you know I’m currently working on a simple 2D interface system for the tech demo. I decided to write most of it from scratch and may use some of DirectX’s framework interface system for complex menus.

At Work
Well I’m at work at the moment. Working through some bugs in our code, there’s nothing more fun than spending a whole day fixing a handful of bugs :).

My game at home “Preemptive Strike” is coming along slowly as usual, I’m writing a new terrain engine for it at the moment. Once I’ve finished that I’m going to start adding some more gameplay and see if I can actually make the game fun.
