DK Game Studios: Update: Looking for work
http://dkgamestudios.blogspot.com/2011/07/update-looking-for-work.html
Sunday, July 24, 2011. Update: Looking for work. So I was unfortunately a casualty in the recent layoffs at UTV Ignition. I am sad to leave and I believe that Faxion Online is a great game and a great product. Unfortunately there just wasn't the support that the game needed to succeed and a development team is too expensive to keep around. I understand it was business and that is fine. Unfortunately that means I am currently unemployed. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Curse of Zombie Island. Chris St...

DK Game Studios: UDK Day 1
http://dkgamestudios.blogspot.com/2011/10/udk-day-1.html
Thursday, October 27, 2011. Today is the day that I start really cracking down and learning unreal script. I have worked with it in the past on and off, but never really got into it as my real world life tends to take me a little deeper down the rabbit hole (i.e. C/C /C#/HLSL/GLSL/etc.). A few issues that I already foresee:. No free to use IDE. oh I already said that one, well looks like I'm gonna have to Rambo program this stuff. The biggest problem is class member and function lookups. I ha...Oh and as...

DK Game Studios: Faxion Online
http://dkgamestudios.blogspot.com/p/faxion-online.html
From June 2010 to July 2011 I was a part of a development team in Austin Texas. We were working on a Massive Multiplayer Online game (MMO), depicting the eternal struggle between the forces of good and evil. Specifically that MMO was called Faxion Online and the company was UTV True Games (later to be called UTV Ignition Games). Finally, here is a great link to a PVP video that really captures what Faxion Online is all about. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Curse of Zombie Island. TeknoTrak (Whammy Jam 2012).
