Why have I started a Blog?

Ok, so I’ve just finished watching the series Castle, Red Dead Redemption has been cast aside and I am in need of a cure for boredom. Game Design, that’s it! Something I should have been doing since finishing University. I fell into the Games Testing trap and it is a hard trap to escape from. Games Testing has been a great experience though, I love playing games, having input on a project and seeing how the industry works, but due to the terrible contracts I am never safe from being ‘let go’. So now I am dedicated to making myself a better Game Designer, and to do this I will be working on the following:

  • · 3DS Max
  • · Photoshop
  • · C++
  • · XNA
  • · Flash and Action script
  • · My writing skills
  • · Drawing Skills

I will be blogging my progress, exhibiting my skills, and writing about things that interest me. I am not going to limit myself by only writing about games, as all forms of entertainment fascinate me and they all help towards the design process.
