1. How did you get the nickname "The Graphics
Man"?
I don't really remember how this the graphics man name
came about, but it start after I got out of high
school. My friends main refers to me as THE
GRAPHICS MAN I think because I love playing video games, and
I can develop all kinds of artwork on and off the
computer. Plus, they think I have a natural talent
of being a game developer for whatever reason I
wouldn't know! ;)
1a. What was your single most motivation from
programming on the jaguar platform? and what
keeps you doing it today?
I just think it a cOol sytem, but you can really
thank Steven for bring me on the Jag development board,
haha... Hey, bro (Steven)!
2. What games are you currently working on for
the Jaguar?
FORCE Design is working on three of the following
titles for the Jag:
Gp Earth GOD's Troopers, LEGION FORCE JIDAI, and
CRAZE.
3. Can you give us a brief description of each?
Gp Earth GOD's Troopers is an awesome shooter for
being develop for the Jag. I don't think there will be
anything like it for the Jag for a while after it
release if ever! >:)
LEGION FORCE JIDAI is action platform game being
develop for the Jag. It will be some what like a
Metal Slug for the old mighty Jag!
CRAZE is a title that is being develop(ed) for the Jag,
and it's nothing of your business what it is at the
moment!
4. How far into development is each project?
haha...
5. How do you plan on releasing your new games?
CD, Cart, paid download, or shareware?
Well, I see D... do ya get it?
6. What advice would you give to someone thinking
about programming on the Jag? Like what dev kit?
Skills needed? Whats the toughest part to
programming the beast?
Always brainstorm a game ideal before you jump into
development, and always remember to be a little
flexible while developing a game because I guarantee
you'll have other ideals or problems that will come.
So you might have to change the orginal concept a bit.
BJL, or The Offical Atari Jag Dev kit.
Assembly, and (or) C
using some of the darn development toOls that Atari
made for the system!
7. I also heard that you are the artist on gorf
2000. What is the status of that project? I've tried
to cover alot of jag sites for news and have come
up with no information.
Yes, I am the graphics man of GORF 2000. And I'm still
developing artwork for the game...
