Things you should know about me

Mon Oct 19, 2009, 5:11 AM
1. I really like Pizza a lot - pepperoni with anchovies in my absolute favorite
2. I like to listen to sea shanties while I work late at night
3. I love what I do for a living - so much that I do it for play too.
4. I don't much like going out - not a phobia just a dislike.
5. I think getting my dog Skiffy is one of the best things I ever did.
6. I'm still a little surprised that people like TY so much - maybe too much sometimes.
7. I still don't understand why people grab my TY art off the Krome site and post it on their dA accounts
8. I love Star Wars but feel that working on one game is enough for me.
9. I wish there were more hours in a day and I didn't have to sleep - I'm getting old enough to know that time is starting to run out :( So much to create yet!
10. I forgot why I thought I had to write up this list.

There you go!

deviantID

I'm a video game designer who still loves drawing a lot and designing stuff in his spare time. I'm one of the owners and co-founder of Australia's Krome Studios.

I also designed and co-created TY the Tasmanian tiger series of games and recently finished directorial duties on the Wii, PS2 and PSP versions of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed.

Whenever I get spare time I like to draw comics and I used to have a regular web comic called Blade Kitten but I stopped that to now make it into a really cool next gen game.

Wow a co-designer of the TY series and co-founder at Krome Studios? Wowie, I never thought I'd find a person like you here on DA. Excuse my nerdiness, but I am a fan of underrated characters, like Ty the Tasmanian Tiger. I enjoyed the games, eventhough they were for a younger audience. Anyway enough of my blabbing, it's just a pleasure to meet you!
