This person has: - Mapping experience. I have been playing around with: Hammer, CryEngine Sandbox, CryEngine 2 Sandbox 2, FarCry 2, The Elder Scrolls Construction Set, Fallout 3 G.E.C.K., Unreal Tournament 3, Torque 3D Engine. I don't recall ever completing a map though. - Blender experience. I can make meshes and I have a basic understanding of animating. - Coding experience. I have been working with C++, C#, Java, TorqueScript and Visual Basic. My knowledge of each of the above mentioned fields might not be as much as I'd like it to be, but I love to learn more and I have fun practicing and using my skills.

Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce Level Up: The Game! This innovative and 'ultimate' game is a result of the latest developments in the game industry. It allows the player to level up almost indefinitely by earning XP through clicking the button on the right side of the window. In most games you have to do boring tasks like killing enemies and completing quests in order to earn XP and level up, but not in Level Up: The Game! Instead of having to run around, casting spells, issuing attack orders and completing quests I have created one single button that represents all of these activities, saving you the hard work so you can focus solely on earning XP and leveling up.
Background: After noticing that a lot, and I mean a lot, of modern (?) games have some sort of leveling system with people seemingly playing those games with as only purpose leveling up I said to my friends that I should make "Level Up: The Game" which has only a button and a leveling system revolving around an exponential function. I figured I could sell it for 30 bucks because those suffering from 'levelingmania' would even play a crappy game like that (not really, of course ;) ) While I certainly don't dislike leveling it sometimes feels as just a cheap way to keep people playing the game. Anyway, today I was bored and had 15 minutes to spare, so I figured I could finally (and actually) program this 'game' :)

Hola senor
About that tablet : Youtube.com (the video i got inspired from)
*cheap excuse,so you would check out my reply on my blog.. xD
Anyhow, ill try to make a video soon to prove my words! :D
Lol, yeah, I know, that's what I *should* be doing...I can't help it though. I've always got 10 or so things going. Not very smart. Hopefully by the end of the year, I'll have that down to one, or two things, so I can focus all my attention on one thing.
...Also, I got an idea for a new project yesterday...Kill me now...
But anyway, for the time being, I'm going to focus on animating with Softimage, modeling with blender, and programming with C++. I'll get back to texturing, programming with Java, and level design later.
Well, I started with C++ for a little side-scroller project, and I'm learning Java because it's very similar to Uscript in UDK(Which I'm trying to learn), and so maybe I can make minecraft mods at some point :P
But yeah...I kinda switch between them sometimes...Which probably isn't very smart xD
Hey Metalspy, how's the coding career going? :)
Bethesda Softworks is under Zenimaxx Productions, so they are in no way indie.
EA published alot of Valve's games, so they wouldn't be considered indie either.
Vivendi Games owned Blizzard, Activision and Vivendi Games just merged, so Blizzard isn't indie either.
None, I've had a bit of 3d modeling in class a few years ago. Other than that no special game oriented education.
Whenever I do something for a team it's usually modeling (no texturing).
I'm just lurking and cant bring myself to close my moddb tab on firefox xD besides, i missed the old moddb feel ^^
I'm realist
No, you're not.
