Car Chaos released today! Car Chaos is a simple game where you try to keep the cars from hitting each other as they drive through the city. This was originally a “game in a day” project and I had a different theme for the game, but a good mate (and oh so talented) Tony Blinco (from Kazoowee games), came up with an awesome looking cityscape and already had some cars ready to go so ofcourse I gladly went along with the new theme. 
Thanks to Tony, the game looks awesome!
I’d also like to thank Pete Baron for his help with some of the math in the game. It’s no secret my math skills are lacking. Thanks Pete!
There’s alot you can do with this type of game, but for this version I wanted to keep it simple. I like coding small skill games and I think the car theme works well. There might be an expanded sequel in a few weeks or so, we’re putting some ideas together currently.
Stop the cars from crashing in the city with this hot action game. Features awesome graphics, sound and music. Super easy to play, just click on the cars to make them go faster, slow down or stop.
Play Car Chaos Now!

Blockies Breakout is our new casual friendly breakout / arkanoid game. I always wanted to code a simple breakout type game. The retro breakout bonus game I coded in PixelBlast was well recieved so I wanted to expand on that. I also wanted to tie the game to our popular matching game Blockies, so I used the characters from that game.
I’m very happy how this game came out. The game has 30 levels, 5 bonus rounds and several powerups (and powerdowns) to collect through out the game. The game took around 1 week to develop, most of the code was already done so it was just a matter of tweaking some code. I plan on releasing several level pack editions for this game, where each level pack will introduce new game features along with the new levels.
I released the game on Newgrounds where I was pleasently surprised to see it come in 5th place (minus the movies) for the day.

I love fishing! Love to take out my European gear, set up about 4-5 rods from the bank. Turn on the electronic bite indicators. Chum the waters with some pellots, nuts, shad, etc. Waiting for a big Carp, Catfish or Gar to get the indicators screaming. Kick back and enjoy the day. Problem is, I actually havn’t gone fishing at all in 2010. There’s this other thing I enjoy doing, programming, which has probably taken way too much of my time the past year or so. The problem is, there has been so many new things I’ve learned in my ripe old age, it’s almost like learning how to code for the first time!
The past year and a half, I have coded over 20 flash games, released half a dozen or more PC screensavers, released a casual puzzle game for the PC download market, had the same game ported over to the Nintendo WiiWare platform, been part of a Nintendo Wii retail game where my job consisted of coding 30 - 2D mini games, (currently porting over 16 of those games to the Nintendo DS), I have ”a bunch” of un released flash games I need to finish at some point. Plus I have a few new websites to launch in 2010 or early 2011. I’m basically as busy as I want to be.
While it’s been very stimulating mentally, my physical health has taken it’s toll. I’ve put on a “few” extra pounds, havn’t been working out hardly at all, not jamming on my drumset near as much as I should be. Problem is, I’ll sit down to code and the next thing I know 8 hours have passed! Yah…this has been a repeating cycle my entire life. “Hyper Focusing” is what it’s called I’ve been told.
So while I’m trying to code just a bit less each day and add some much needed physical time, I’m also hoping I can enjoy some fishing at least 1-2 times a month from here on out. As a matter of fact, I plan to go fishing this weekend.
Hey… I just bought a new laptop and installed my Flash development kit on it, perhaps I can get some coding in too! (See…what I mean? jeesh…)
