sixty-seconds-to-liveYou have just 60 seconds of your life remaining. Can you solve your own murder in this mini-adventure?

Click or drag items to interact. Try to find means, motive and opportunity to solve your own murder!

Play Sixty Seconds to Live

This game was built from nothing in under 3 days, for the Mochi 60 seconds contest. Everything was done in that time from concept and idea development, through artwork and sound recording to coding and playtesting. There’s even a walkthrough for those who can’t work it all out for themselves. Enjoy!

deeperbeigeThe site you’re currently looking at underwent a fairly major update from an old fashioned HTML site (created many years ago) to a whizzy new WordPress powered affair. All done in-house of course, and I’ll be posting any newly completed work here. Feel free to subscribe to the RSS feed to keep up to date, or browse through whatever sections you wish.

stopwatchAnother experiment in advertising. This handy single-serving URL is so easy to remember that we’re hoping lots of people return to it whenever they need an online stopwatch. It’s easy to use, contains just the features you need and looks fab. Spread it far and wide, please!

In fact, feel free to embed the stopwatch on your own website – the embed code is right there in the stopwatch widget.

Wallace & Gromit: Invention Suspension

Thursday, March 26th, 2009

wallace-and-gromit-invention-suspensionA spiritual sucessor to Hanna in a Choppa, Wallace and Gromit: Invention Suspension sees you helping Gromit to pilot a remote-control chopper to collect parts for their new invention.

Everything about this game is improved over Hanna in a Choppa. The helicopter is better controlled, more stable and stronger. There is even a choice of three differently performing choppers. The graphics are beautiful, the sounds are spot on and the level design continues the trend of making things new and different per level, not harder. There are more achievements to get, and there’s even a highscore table that you can submit your total time to. If you can get within a minute of my 6min 26seconds total, you’re doing really very well. If you liked Hanna in a Choppa, prepare to love this!

MG Books

mgbooksI inherited this website for the small book seller MG Books. It was in a bit of a state, but with a tiny budget made it presentable and editable via a CMS that the owner can use. The site had a geeklog CMS before that only half-worked, and was too complex for the owner to work with reliably.

In-Gear

in-gearThe In-Gear website was designed and created for a local motorcycle riding school to help them sell courses.

This is the riding school that taught me to ride a motorbike too, and I can thoroughly recommend them for all your rider training needs, from CBT to big-bike courses.

Visit the in-gear.co.uk website

The site’s owner keeps the site fresh and up to date via the flexible CMS, and there are a number of integrated features on the site:

  • Contact the riding school online
  • Check out current bookings and find a free course slot online
  • Pay for your course through the website
  • Watch instructional video clips
  • Read articles about riding
