About Me
I have worked in IT since the mid 90s, I have had varying roles in different sectors including The Ministry of Defense, Healthcare, and Housing. I have done varying roles from a programmer, application support, systems implementer, system administration, system architect, project manager and team leader. More recently I have gone into games development for myself.
I have come full circle and doing what I always to do and that’s to write games! To write sorts of games that I want to play. In my blog, you’ll find out about my progress on various projects that I am working on.
Thanks for dropping by.

Triss, a Tetris game with a twist. The tetronimoes keep stacking up on the Tetris tower, but you have no way to move them or rotate them. Instead you control the colour grid to zap the shapes! Good luck and have fun! Triss by conceptAlpha
