originalcontentparadox asked: Hey again ... I want your opinion on one thing (^-^). What is your opinion on text-adventure games? or text games(interactive fiction) in general. Do you think it is even impressive to be able to make one? I've been having a little trouble designing my games in order to fit into 2d/3d format ... they only work as text based rpgs. Do people even play text based games anymore. I do ... I love...

No, seriously, I am just an absolute creative genius! Somebody, anybody, from a game design team big or small, studio, company, anybody, please please *please* contact me. I have ideas, phenomenal, slightly crazy, ideas for games, but I don’t have the ability to make them happen. Others do! And my…

jessiray asked: I know you probably get this a lot, and I sincerely hope I'm not annoying you but...I'm a young aspiring game developer. Right now, I'm in the planning stages of my first game, which I want to be a browser based side scroller. I have some background in C++ (I took a class in community college) and web languages, but not enough to make a lot of leeway. What languages do I start with...

Some of My Recent Projects at KlickNation, now...
Recently (within the last few months) I’ve been working on various prototype “features” for the games that I work on or something related to those games. However, not long ago I made a pretty rad app for Android (and can easily be ported to iPhone). I want to share some with the people who are out there and are curious enough to click the links.
For Superhero City, a facebook...
muffintrap asked: Ohai there and thanks for following my tiny blog. I see you live in Sacramento! Did you happen to take part in NaNoWriMo this year? And super nice to see other game dev people here on tumblr :D
originalcontentparadox asked: Welll.. that is what happens ... I don't want to add to your fear, but I used to be quite skilled at C++. I have forgotten a lot of it's syntax. Python is a pretty language ^-^'. I prefer RPGs ... and as for games I'm working on now ... like it states on my blog ... I I was working on the "blueprint" for a game called Time Assassin, but realized that with some...
katleroux asked: So, I heard your girlfriend is pretty hot. Is this true?
originalcontentparadox asked: Hi... me again ... if you don't mind me asking ... what kind of games do you make in your free-time ... any particular genre you prefer making ... and what language do you use. I'm more comfortable using Python, but am known to use others such as C++, Actionscript 2.0 or PHP if I think it's necessary.
kr-studios asked: Um... Hi. Thanks for following me. Also, do you really work for BioWare? I was just wondering what the whole BioWare "Social" is about.
originalcontentparadox asked: Well... I live in Iceland. The gaming market here is rather big for a country with a population of 300k. With companies like CCP(creators of Eve Online) & Dexoris(created a bunch of award winning iphone games) continuing to thrive. There's defiantly job possibilities here. That John Carmack sounds like a visionary and that quote surely is inspirational. I actually am right now heading...

originalcontentparadox asked: Noticed you due to you following me and the game development tag I constantly track. I would love to get some questions answered ... if you don't mind.. 1. You work as a developer professionally ... do you create games on the side... like for fun or does work kind of kill the hobby spirit? 2. Who are/were your role models when it came to game developing. My role model right now is Richard...

Day 2 of my first full week as an employee of...
Well, it’s technically my fourth day, but it’s Tuesday of my first full week as an employee. So far, nothing has changed for my job since the acquisition, which is nice :) I got to work on a lot of new stuff for our products, namely our latest game, Age of Immortals, which is a joint venture between us (BioWare Social, formerly KlickNation) and SyFy Games. I also made a prototype...

Work at midnight
Every other day this week will be met with midnight work. Fortunately it’s not crazy and is mostly monitoring and fixing any problems that arise. Hooray for overtime!
Whoa, it’s 4:23pm already? Where’d my day go? I have a few more hours of work to do, but I don’t have a few more hours >.<

BioWare Social
About a month ago I found out my company (KlickNation) was being acquired by EA/BioWare. I wasn’t sure what to expect since my only experience with EA was having them as my game’s publisher on Hellgate: London. It was a pretty hands-off relationship, so I didn’t get much insight into EA being… EA. Throughout my time in the industry I have heard tons of rumors about how EA...
