I'm a flash game developer and programmer. My inspiration for game design generally comes from the NES/SNES days, but I've touched basically all there is and enjoy anything that's fun. I'm also the owner of Gemfruit Studios.

Update

Posted by Matt-Porter - June 27th, 2009


So I figured I'd drop an update here for anyone who happens to stumble upon my page.

First off, Tower of Greed was a rather large success. The sponsorship money was great and it really turned out nearly exactly as I imagined it would. As always it was a learning experience and future games of the genre will do better with that new found knowledge. the game itself was front paged here on newgrounds for awhile which was great. Unfortunately we weren't able to put in medals to the game due to us programming in AS3 and being very strict with OOP which wouldn't allow us to implement the newgrounds API. Next time I suppose.

Next, my flash arcade site is doing amazing lately, it's grown to nearly 250 hand selected games and has a new look that I'm rather pleased with. The site also has a flash games blog where I write about the flash industry, my projects, tips and tricks to becoming a flash game designer, and the occasional game review.

I'm currently in a learning stage again forcing myself to learn even more AS3 and OOP, but it's coming along nicely and hopefully things continue to go great as they are now.
