Speaking at LFPUG – 29th July

Just a quick note to say I’ll be speaking at LFPUG on 29th July with my colleague Martyn. We’ll be talking about the wonderful world of Moshi Monsters and how we manage the large, evolving codebase behind a game that has over 20 million users globally.

The venue is still TBC, but it’ll no doubt be somewhere in central London. If you’d like to come along, you can sign up for the event in early July.

Many thanks to Tink for finding us a slot in the busy LFPUG schedule!

Kidnapped by Ninjas

A few months ago, I was asked by my friend James Wallis if I would be interested in working with him on a new video podcast about games. Since I spend most of my free time gaming, I figured this was a brilliant idea.

A few failed attempts, and one childbirth later (not mine, fear not!), we have our pilot episode ready for public viewing!

As it’s a pilot, it’s a little rough round the edges, but not bad for a first episode! In this one, we review Blur and Red Dead Redemption, and explain who we are and our rating system.

For more info on the podcast and the team, we’ve got a blog at KidnappedByNinjas.net. You can also view the video on the following sites:

If you like the video, or just feel like being lovely and supportive, please check out our Facebook page and spread the word! We’re aiming to have another video ready at the start of July. I’ll post more details here nearer the time.
