Previous Projects: I currently work as a programmer and engineer for a company producing interactive science exhibitions for museums and visitor centres around the world. In this role I have developed many PC games and interfaces.
Primary skillset: C++/DirectX, Boost, Python, Lua, Flash. Highly creative and dedicated.
Other skills: AI, RakNet networking, Bullet physics, Subversion, MySQL, Windows and Ubuntu Linux.
Below are some examples of my work.
Until recently, I ran my own MMO game dev project, mainly a solo effort, but RL work pressures meant I couldn't dedicate enough time to it. So now I'd like to join an existing team as a programmer. I developed a huge code base for my own project which I'd be happy to draw on in a new project. The process also gave me much insight into the process.
I am only looking for serious projects, not beginners, not solo programmers! I'd like to get involved with a long term project, like another 3D MMO.
I'd prefer to work on several discrete areas of the game and engine. I can contribute around 20 hours a week, although this amount will vary from time to time due to RL work deadlines and occasional family commitments.
Thanks
Simon
