Welcome to this brand new, shiny blog dedicated to the endeavours of the games development team Chrome Catalyst. But who are we, what do we do and why? Well scroll on gentle reader and I shall tell you.
Who the hell are you?
We are 5 students from the University of Portsmouth. I'm from the Game Enterprise course where I get taught some business skills and marketing as well as all that programming stuff. The other 4 are from the Games Technology course where they are taught how to draw naked people and programming (Its general drawing techniques, but still a lot of naked people to draw).
So why did we get into this?
After a first term learning how to program, making (bad) 3ds max models and drawing naked old people, we arrived in the second term ready to start making stuff. We desired to make games outside the structure of the course, where our choices could be made without worrying about whether it would it get us enough marks at the end of term. Having spotted various competitions that wandered through our uni mail boxes we stumbled across the XNA competition Dream.Build.Play.
So what did you do?
Having decided on a course of action the members were gathered and headed to that font of creativity, the pub. There we generated our idea, started an initial design document and distributed our roles. We then ran the idea pass our lecturers and any smart people we knew. With approval and sage advice given we worked out a plan.
So that's us and in the immortal words of Leeroy Jenkins.....
LETS DO THIS!!!!!!!!
