Challenge your friends and family to ‘Play with fire’ as you gather around to build a 3D campfire, but don’t get burned! If you drop a piece of the fire you lose the game!
Tinderblox funded to the tune of £44,476 with the support of 2,485 backers on Kickstarter.
What you been up to?
Not much, you?
I’ve finally discovered chords…
Live performance from a drunken Friday night drum pad session. Keen to tighten this one up for the EP, when I’ve got a hot minute.
There was an echoing bell.
In a dream I once had…
It sounded a little bit like this.
Another track for the lockdown EP that has been filling my evenings. Tricky to get an off beat sounding right here, but I think it comes out well in the wash.
Darker nights make me tired.
At least that means I get more sleep.
The void ain’t all that bad.
The first track I’ve put out there in a long time. Discovering how to use Guitar Rig to record live performances has been a game changer.
Have you ever wanted to design a tabletop game?
It’s not as hard as you think!
In this short seminar, published tabletop game designer, Rob Sparks, talks about his progression from hobbyist board game fan to a published game designer in under a year.
Six stories outlining his journey accompany six lessons that he wished he learned sooner:
These lessons are rooted in game design, but they are useful for any creative pursuit. If you’re a board game fan looking to begin your journey designing games, there has never been a better time.
Being locked in (thanks COVID-19) doesn’t mean you can’t start looking for inspiration, sharing your ideas, and creating something amazing to enjoy for years to come.
To celebrate the launch of Tinderblox, I hosted a smashing party at the one and only Chance & Counters, Bristol.
Featuring lots of really questionable campfires, and a venue at maximum legal capacity, it was awesome to have such a great crowd. The people of 365 Bristol were there to see the Kickstart hit £11,000 (double the funding goal) in under 10 hours!
The night was a highlight of my career; we got amply sauced on craft beer, danced around the board game cafe, and run tournament games to crown the champion. Turns out I suck at my own game…
Speaking of highlights, check out the videos of the night over on Instagram.
Thinking outside the box is my speciality, especially when it comes to board games.
Cue headhunter for the role of Cyber Crisis Simulator Content Developer, and I quickly realised I needed to impress.
I took their technical assignment to write a two-page crisis scenario and decided to spend my two days time limit making their product into a game instead.
It definitely helped me get the job, and hopefully, you may get to see it at one the many Cyber conventions Immersive Labs markets at.
Fly away with this dice drafting, push-your-luck puzzle game, where you pack the game away as you play.

HITC Sport Live brings all the content from HITC along with curated transfer news from around the web. With the addition of live sports, we aim to make this app your primary source for football information.
Developed in Swift at a time where the language was relatively new (little help from stack overflow), this app was a baptism of fire to work on.
However, it sharpened our knowledge and developed our skills to produce a brilliant sports app to compliment our website.

Slow down and soak up some summer heat.
I really like down-timbre bass and falling piano sounds in this track. So much so, I gave it the name Embers, and it stuck immediately.
Eventide (noun) – The end of the day; evening.
One of my simplest releases from way back when I barely knew what half the buttons on my Maschine Mikro did.
I still don’t…
