I just completed a Flash prototype for an eight-way shooter with a continuously respeccable character. You can try it out here.

Next week: Dance Assassin.

2.0

The last time I revised my site, I wrote two posts over the course of a week and a half and then left it to gather dust for the next year. But things will be different this time. I’m a year older now! I have a new domain name besides the one that I thought was ever-so-clever back in middle school! Plus, I’m publicly claiming that I’m going to actually update occasionally, which will make me look really terrible if I let history repeat itself.

So, hello there! I’m Doug Macdonald. I program and design video games — currently as a student, but as of May 1st of this year I’ll be part of that terrifying place they call the ‘real world’. This site serves as a sort of portfolio of some of my recent endeavors in game development. There are great successes and spectacular failures here; you will laugh, you will cry.

I intend to keep this site up to date with updates on my senior projects — new features, significant hurdles, all that thrilling stuff. Or possibly I’m just saying this to make it look more hilarious when I never make another post after this one. We’ll see.
