Posted in Uncategorized on June 3, 2011 by Samuel M

Being showcased twice, firstly at the joystiq booth and secondly at the IndieCade booth. There will be a playable demo with tons of new additions including new visual and sound FX, new models and my story lines!

Let me know if you come across it.

Well I was a big liar.

So I meant to start new posts here regularly, but then I got into working for Toxic Games on their game QUBE. Which has been brilliant to work on, I’m actually a game writer. How about that.

Check it out and hopefully, I’ll be able to talk about the writing on here someday.

Haven’t posted in a while but had an absurb amount of university work to do before I leave for Dubai on the 14th December.

Still here’s some work I did for the Staffordshire Union’s Media:

Comedy Club Review

Comedy Club Interviews with Holly Walsh, Rob Rouse and Rob Coleman

A interview and short report on InsertCoinClothing

I’ll have a crack at doing some more articles in the near future once my University work is out the way. Perhaps something about Skins.

Off Into X3: Part Two

Posted in Comedy, Games, X3: My Attempt with tags , , on August 31, 2010 by Samuel M

After spending about a month not playing X3 due to some stupidly simple problem and some tech support which they (and I) failed to think of ‘reinstall’ up until now, I’m back in it and ready to go.

Wait, what was I doing.

Broadcast News Programme: Series One

Posted in Broadcast News Programme, Comedy with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , on August 8, 2010 by Samuel M

At Staffs Uni I’ve been making a small satire news programme for One Media Group Television (the student union video service).

It’s still needs work and we all need more practice but I think there are some laughs to be had and some constructive criticism will help us make a better second series in september/october.

Enjoy all three episodes!

Episode 1 – Swastikas, Girls Can’t Catch, Cheryl Cole and Jelly Babies

Episode 2 – Sleeping, University Elections, SU Club’s Most Popular Room, Lass Mags

Episode 3 – (apologies about the grainy look) General Election, Disappearing Minorities, Summer Ball, Doctor Who Sex Scandal

30 Days of Garry’s Mod

Posted in Films, Games, Look what I made! with tags , , , , , , on August 6, 2010 by Samuel M

I made this in a combination of Garry’s Mod and MS Paint.

I think it looks pretty good.

I made this through using lights, lamps, color mod, zombie ragdolls and blood emitters. Then the logo was cut and pasted from another 30 days of night poster with a little clean up.

That’s the poster I was basing it on in case you haven’t seen it.

So as basic as it comes here are some games I like and why.
