So it Begins

So it Begins...

Greetings, mortals; this is going to be my blog relating to my Computer Games Design course at University Campus Suffolk, Ipswich. In here I'll be posting all kinds of annoying things which only some people will understand, very few will enjoy, and which may confuse people who don't have experience in various pieces of software such as Adobe Flash and PhotoShop (OK, Flash and PhotoShop are very generic, but come on, surely not EVERYONE knows them but me?). I, meanwhile, will be laughing at your confusion and misery from my throne of minor nerdery.

Let me tell you a little about myself, as little as you want to know. It has been nearly 19 years since the day of my arrival on this planet; the majority of the humans here don't seem to suspect that I am, in fact, entirely human.

The course is now well into it's second week; the first week was dedicated to creating and presenting a presentation of a game in groups of about 5 or 6 people, allowing the tutors to better gauge our skills and levels of work, as well as to help us first years settle in.

That went OK.

We are now falling into our more regular timetable of lectures and work, and have been ordered into groups for longer-term projects. I have yet to see what my role in this undertaking will be, but I suspect I will be a mash-up of basic coding skills and low-quality 2D art. I must remain open to change, however. Survival of the most adaptable.

I will add another page which will describe my interests in some minor detail. I don't doubt that very few people will read it.

Praise the Emperor of Mankind!
