It’s been a while since I posted anything but I’ve not been sat idle. Since May 2009 I’ve been working on Deal Or No Deal – the official multiplayer game for social networks. Up to 18 people can play at once. There are 26 boxes each containing some money value. Each round some of the [...]
This is a prototpye from the Sony Bravia website. I actually prefer this version to the final version. There’s more going on that at first meets the eye. What’s clever about it is the way it zooms in to the choosen items. You click and drag to open the items. Releasing the mouse auto opens/closes [...]

There’s three main effects going on here: the top water employs a moving displacement map, the rising spray at the bottom, and the interaction [...]
Signs Of Life prototype – Fill the logo with coal dust. If you can be bothered to fill the entire thing you’ll see it burst into flames! Hail the BitmapData class. This chugs a bit but then it uses a lot of particles. It would be much nicer in Flash 9.
Signs Of Life prototype – Click on the water to make ripples and reveal another hidden video.
Signs Of Life prototype – Play with the curtains to see if you can reveal the hidden(ish) logo.
Roar is a kids show on Children’s BBC about looking after animals in a safari park. This is a sim-zoo style game that we made at Victoria Real (3 developer team) which accompanied the series. Children can set up 5 enclosures in a park with different animals and then feed and breed them via a [...]
