Long time overdue for me to start building up an online presence,So i will start this sketchbook thread to show you what i am doing currently for my University studies, and as the rules suggested, I would like to make this thread open to critiques. In the below images are various stages from one of three projects for…
Hey! I'm a experienced Game Designer who started making games over 14 years ago. My newest game "Synthetik" is out on Steam with a 91% User Score (with about all non positive reviews mentioning non-design technical issues.) In short, I started very early, now have a vast skillset and do full project reviews for a very fair…
My PS3 died a few weeks back and I've always had the urge to build a mini-itx computer for about 14 years so I made the leap and built a mini-itx Home Theater PC. I got Kodi (formerly XBMC) set up on it expecting to have something comparable to a console's streaming experience but with the added bonus of ripping my dvd…
Hello, my name is Arthur Astakhov. I have an idea to create UE4 based game about young vampire-woman but i haven't money to do this. It will be 3rd-Person Action with elements of RPG ( character progression, dialogs choices and different endings). I have a raw story, special features of this project, and my vision of…
For me at least Herts has been the most consistent UK university in terms of producing useful graduates. However.. nowhere in Europe compares to DAE at Howest in Belgium except maybe Breda in the Netherlands. I've worked with a couple of Gnomon grads and they were solid but it's hard to gauge 'average' quality due to the…

If you do end up going with something similar to Per's controller or VJ sets, make sure to look into OSC rather than MIDI. While midi can do high-resolution (14 bits rather than the regular 7) control, it's more finicky, and OSC seems like a more modern solution for controllers like these. Another thing you can take…
This is a great thread! The crazy part about all of this is, as someone who graduated in 2009 from Full Sail, I was used to working 14-16 hour days during school and being told "This is the industry, if you can't cut it in school working this much then you wont make it in the industry. Because that is the norm." That was…
What? I am 50 and was 14 years old in 1980. Yer 37 year old friend was about 2 years old in 1980. I would call him a kid of the 80's and 90's! :) Although I spent most my quarters in the 80's ( cuz like I was cool and had a job and drove a bitchin Camaro. ) I lived in the arcades in the 70's malls as well. ( as did…
One thing to check into is to see if other apartment complexes in the neighborhood are rising rent as well. A lot of times managers will raise rent at the same time to stay competitive. That's when it's a problem. On the same token, if only your complex is doing it, it's against the fair housing act... Well crap, I'm not…
