About Game Waffle

What is Game Waffle about?

Game Waffle is about games design and the games design industry.
It is not about fanboys and fangirls.
It is not about console wars.
It is not about comparing the sizes of your hard drives.
It is not about polycounts or framerates, chips, bits or tech specs.
It is about design.


Who are we?

We are a bunch of students studying Computer Games Design in the UK.
We don't pretend to know everything about games design, but we do know that there is a lack of serious computer games design debate on the internet. There are plenty of forums where you can get into the repetitive, age-old gamer debates and dev-discussions - but where are the people talking about games for the sake of design? We couldn't find them.
That's why we started Game Waffle.

Also, we'd had a few pints...

My current ambitions are to be a concept artist, though I first need to escape coding.

I seem to end up coding a lot, and created the backend PHP for this site. I always seem to have a million projects on the go, including coding, my site (Widgie World), ActionScripting, Flash game design...it never ends.

Mainly though, I like, tea, cats, cider and of course, gaming.

Currently I'm a Game Design Student at Newport University hoping to either manage game production or develop level interaction and builds.

I will be providing News, Reviews and Views in the "Working Title" podcasts with my co-host Alisdair, otherwise I`m a researcher and general dogsbody.

My current interests are gaming, drinking, travelling and generally keeping my head down.

Hi, my real name is Jason, but I go by the alias of Mr Thornfield (PI). My main areas of interest are in concept design and animation. Of course that doesn't mean to say that I'm not interested in other aspects of game design, i.e game phycology.
