  • Plough into asteroid fields to clear the path or hold off firing as long as you can!

ABOUT THE GAME

I used the game over a couple of weeks as a means of learning Unity as a tool, covering stuff such as multi-touch, ad implementation and particle effects. As much as I enjoyed the experience, I really thought the project had commercial potential so  opted instead to rebuild it over a couple of days in the tool I'm most comfortable with, Stencyl (To give it the polish it deserved).

ABOUT ME

I'm a games developer based out of Cambridge, I've been building games for around 7 years. I learnt how to code teaching kids Stencyl in upstate New York then decided to make my own games.

Along with designing games, I also create weird custom controllers. These are usually made with cardboard, foil, lots of crocodile clips and kitchen sponges. Several have been built into proper installations, for example; boxing puppets, Morse Code switchboards and recently a surgical table with a syringe controller!
