Joining Brunel University

I'll soon be joining Brunel's Game Design BA / MA, as their lecturer in game asset production (graphics, basically). It's an exciting new challenge, and I look forward to seeing how I fit in to the course, which focusses on gameplay, as opposed to programming (or art, at least exclusively).

Mobile App development

I'm teaching another new course, this time in mobile app development. We're using a system called MobileNation, which is a little buggy, but if you use some ingenuity it's possible to get a respectable business app out of it (no games, though, unfortunately!).

As a class demo, I built an app for the college, a few screens of which I've included below. Shown on iOS.
