This time around, I worked on the central hub of the project – the part that loads all the other games, keeps your score history and achievements, and so on. I also led the team technically, ensuring all the separate bits from the different developers all integrated and worked together in the end.

We went to town on the nice touches a little bit too, like the physically modelled washing lines and the insane number of new achievements. There’s lots of fun to be found here!

Gumball: Dino Donkey Dash is a game built with Aardman Digital for Cartoon Network to run alongside the popular kids show. Take control of Gumball and Darwin to steal Anais’ favourite toy back from Tina the dinosaur.

Play Gumball: Dino Donkey Dash.

All three games within the suite can be played alone or with a friend, at the same keyboard. There’s not enough two-player around-the-keyboard Flash games these days!

The first minigame is Sneak. You have to press the up/down keys as directed, in step with the symbols. Get it wrong and you’ll make more noise, and eventually wake up the sleeping dinosaur.

Beat the Sneak game, and you’ll move on to Poke. Use a long wobbly pole to tease the stuffed toy from Tina’s sleeping snuggle. Miss too many times, and you’ll inadvertently wake her up and incur her wrath…

So you’ve got the toy back, but Tina is chasing you through the junkyard where she lives. You’ll have to run and jump to avoid her, passing the donkey back and forth between the characters to escape. Survive the Catch game to get to the end.

This suit of three minigames was built to work in 15 separate languages simultaneously. You can actually switch between them dynamically in-game if you know the special cheat keys! Russian, Bulgarian and especially Arabic presented unique technical problems, with Flash not supporting right-to-left scripts very well (we weren’t using the new TLF capabilities due to their performance being terrible).

The translator supports progressive font fallback per textfield – so if the original font doesn’t contain the right characters it will be swapped with a similar looking one that includes more European accents and characters. If that still doesn’t support the right characters, it will be swapped again for Arial. The translator contains an embedded version of each language, which can be replaced by a loaded file at runtime. That can even be reloaded dynamically on a cheat-key. It will also auto-shrink fonts to fit in their given space, so text is never cropped unintentionally.

This puzzle-platformer game was built with Aardman to help promote Tony Robinson‘s new series of lovely children’s history books.

Play Tony Robinson’s Weird World of Wonders.

In every game I try to introduce something new and original. In this one, you control two characters at once. Pee Wee and Nits. The boy Pee Wee can be controlled with arrow keys, and Nits, his dog, can be controlled with the mouse. That means that two people can play side by side on the same computer, in a cooperative manner. It’s great fun, give it a go and try to solve the level puzzles with your best mate!

I’ve loved Tony Robinson’s acting work since I was young, watching him play Baldrick in the Blackadder comedies. It was an amazing privilege to work with him on this project. His browbeating voiceovers totally transform the game, injecting character and humour throughout.

To go with the brilliant kids wildlife TV show “Live ‘n Deadly”, the BBC wanted a major online game. They got Aardman to build it, and I was brought in as part of the team. I worked mainly on the design of levels 2 and 3 (Borneo and California), but also on the core platform engine a little, alongside Mark Burvill and a few others.

It was an ambitious project, with a pretty tight deadline. There’s the odd rough edge, but overall it came out pretty well! There were even tie-ins with the show, with the presenters giving out goodies for the game live on air.

To advertise the kids laser-tag toys Light Strike, I built a simple target-range game. It was created over the course of a couple of days, with supplied graphics from Chris Minett.

Even though this was a super-quick build, there was still time to work a little depth into the game. The gun has a 3-round auto, and using it will help you score higher. Don’t hit your own team colour too, and aim for the centre of each target for maximum points! There’s even a faux-3D effect on the gun lasers.

Championsheeps is a new suite of five children’s games, produced by Aardman Digital for the BBC. I worked on coding the Baahmy Golf game within the suite. The graphics and concept were all worked out when I got to this one. I just had to make everything work!

In Baahmy Golf, it’s Shaun’s job to break as many things as he can with just five shots. Almost all of the items visible are interactive in some way, so smash away and enjoy the show! Don’t forget to use your unconventional flippers (lids, a toilet seat, even a duck) to keep the ball in motion.

Bounce Timmy as high as you can in this gentle-paced dreamy casual game. Land on the squishy cushions to leap up again, and pick up bonuses for a boost! Log into your Facebook account in-game to compete against your friends.

Shaun, Shirley and Timmy must team up and work together if they want to get home in this physics platformer. Expect stacked sheep, sheep-seesaws, trampolines and more in this fun action-puzzle.

This game was built with graphics and sound from the amazing Aardman Digital team to promote the new Shaun the Sheep website. Check it out, and don’t miss the second series of Shaun The Sheep either. Both are awesome!

A game for young kids – match the sounds to the correct characters from the new Timmy Time show. There’s even switch controls for the disabled in this one, so no excuses not to play!
