Spore

I managed to snag a copy of Spore today (I got the Galactic Edition but you can snag a normal copy on amazon), a new-style game which Will Wright calls a ‘Massively Single-player Online Game’. The game allows you to build, train and advance your creature from a single celled organism to a space-flying weapon-loving civilization.

So what makes this game good? It’s completely original. It allows you to make your creatures, buildings, everything in fact exactly how you want. So far I’m in love, it has all the great hints of comedy you’d expect from Maxis while at the same time having a very good gameplay.

Now working at IntenseDebate

In the last month or so I’ve been in talks with the guys over at IntenseDebate about their advertised position for a new software engineer. As of this Wednesday I will be starting remote work on a few projects delegated which I’m very excited about. Check out the site for more information and the blog for the cutting edge.
