Tentacle Games

I've just registered tentaclegames.co.uk as a domain for a game I'm working on. I've been picking the brains of various Build Brighton folk, and watching lots of YouTube clips, and seem to have settled on either Cocos2D, or Corona... with Corona looking much more fun...
I'll post details when I get the first build done.

hand cramps

It's been so long since I've used my tablet, that I have slight hand cramps after working up these images...
New Cintiq13HD is looking very tempting...

Game graphic goodness

I haven't been posting here for a while, as I'm working on a my CS degree, in fact I've just started the final project, in which I'm planning to investigate cross platform mobile app (game) development.
I'm looking at a number of different cross platform frameworks, like Cocos2D-X, and aim to see how easy it is to maintain one central code base, whilst porting apps to Android and iOS.
To do this I thought I'd build a simple "infinite runner" or "platformer" using the characters I designed for the Ninja Dinosaur vs Pirate Robot book.
