Welcome to my little place on the web.
I'm a software developer by day, but occasionally when time allows, I like to tinker with home automation, home theatre and retro gaming (basicly anything geeky that involves a computer).
When I get time I'll try and blog about these projects here. I have also shared some of my software, which I hope may be of use to others. It's on my software page.
I'm thrilled to announce that Lost Little Spaceman has won Amazon's Appstore Developer Spotlight award. It will be featured in the Amazon Appstore from 11th December.
This is great news and will hopefully get the game some much needed publicity.

Just a quick update this morning, as it's been a while! School holidays have been keeping me busy!
Anyway I have been busy fixing the last few bugs in lost little spaceman. Think I'm now just down to 4 bugs. Once these are ironed out it will be updated on Google play to the next beta.

I number of people have asked me how and what I use to create games, so decided it was time to write about it.
My first game Dave Dangerous was written in Java, at the time this was a language I had not used. But being a c# developer the languages are very similar. Both object oriented and use very similar syntax.
