I love games, I especially love games which long complicated plot-lines or inter-twisting stories. They don’t have to be complex, they just need to make sense and not conflict with reality. I’m not really a multi-player gamer, I just love my single / coop experience so much. In short, I love stories, whether they are in print, on the large/small screen or are in games.

After clearing away all the drinks, party streamers and general clutter from the launch party, a few stragglers were found loitering in the rubble, so we picked a few randomly and awarded them some prizes. Well almost.

I personally hate link-baity titles, however this one is completely justified.

Today I am very proud, not just of the efforts and feedback I’ve been getting for my latest title Unity 3D UI Essentials but also for my publisher who (against all odds) has done an amazing thing, promised a portion of sales revenue for my book to Charity.

It has certainly been a fun and wild ride producing this unique title.

At the time of writing this, I am nearing the end of my second journey in to book writing. (in a very short period of time) In response to a survey I put out about where to put content (a non-UI tutorial in a book about the new UI system), I am publishing the appendix for my forthcoming Unity title named Unity 3D UI Essentials :

Following the success of last year’s festive offer, Packt Publishing will be celebrating the holiday season with an even bigger $5 offer.

Thought I might try and write the longest title ever on my blog, not sure I have made it but it was a worthy effort.

It is been a mad year and a half for me, one book out (Mastering Unity 2D Game Development), another book in its final stages, (An almost complete overhaul of book 1 thanks to gremlins) and a host of other family activities. I have just reached a nice break where I found time for some opensource development and catching up on some overdue reading!

I’ve hinted at this for a while now and I’m close to completing the production work for my next book:
