So this is all new for me. No idea what I will be posting or if it will be any use/interest. But I hope it will. (I bet everyone says this first time…. I bet they all say that as well… and that).
So a little info about me, I am a video game developer who works for a major uk studio for over 13 years. I specialise in general game play logic focusing on specific game modes and occasionally AI.
I also love photography, theme parks, cats (we have four).
So this blog will be a mixture of my side projects (games) that I am currently working on, both using UE and Unity. Game design and learning about what makes good game design. My photography and my process of learning to be a better photographer. My days out and random updates on my cats…. if that is of interest.. well it interests me. 😛
My first real blog post will be about a new project I am starting (a simple arena brawler) in UE and how I modified the Top Down to work with a game pad and get the character to rotate correctly in the direction it is moving. I will talk about how I will approach the AI, controls, visual effects, sound effects, and networking etc. until the game is finished.
I will also post up some details of the other projects I have in development as well. So I may be switching around a bit.
Hope my following posts will be of use or interest.
