Or free stuff! I'm a born tinkerer, I can't help it, I have to be working on things a lot of the time to keep the old brain ticking over. I just like building things and seeing them come to life; here are just a couple of them for you to try if you'd like.
Back in the day, well around five years ago, I wrote a game called [Ultra]. A total homage to Atari's superb Tempest, this game is a rush to play and got reviewed magnificently in Retro Gamer magazine. Have a download, but just make sure you play with a mouse, otherwise you'll get annihilated. I'll be working on this game again sometime over the next few months, to bring it up-to-date with contemporary graphics effects and better music, so keep an eye out for that!
More recently I've been working on an image viewer and editor that started with the idea that I've never written any real image processing code before and the subject is an interesting and complex one. I'm also a bit of a snapper, in case you hadn't deduced that from the tone of this site. I wanted something good to edit my pictures with, without having to scratch my head all the time with something like PhotoShop. So, I made something called [Imagina - Virtual Lightbox]. It's free, check it out.
