Dragon Knight (DK) is an entire grid based world designed in flash that you as a character can explore by going on quests and fighting dragons and other monsters with your sword and magic. What makes DK unique is the heavy focus on the arcade action of play. This is a real-time "Arcade Game" with RPG elements, puzzles, and mini games included to keep game play fun and exciting. DK is scheduled to be publicly released on NewGrounds 02/01/08.

The Quest Begins is the name for the first episode in what I hope will be a continuing series of 6 or 7 more episodes yet to come. I have been developing DK for for nearly 6 months as a self initiated project. It is a huge undertaking to take on a project like this. With the exception of the great music contributed to the project by Herbert T. Hill and the hero character art by Joel Carlo, I have done everything else from the storyline; to action scripting, game architecture, graphic design, GUI design, creature animations...well you get the idea. Here is a snapshot list of what is in the 1st episode

As part of a development team for a UT2004 game mod called combustion down, among other things I did for the team I also built the www.combustiondown.com website. This flash piece being featured here was a nice little player interface that I designed to go with the look and feel of the site. When viewing the player, licking the numbers on the right will bring up small movie animations of 3D models we built for the bridge assault and oil rig levels for the mod.

I was originally hired at Internet Solution Group as a graphic artist and over the peroid of 3.5 year rose to client account manager creative art director for the company. I created this little flash advertisement at that time.

I was hired as a free agent to come up with an application tool that would allow the company personnel an easy way to set and design a store layout for a Verizon retail wireless cell phone store. The company was expanding into new territories and they needed a fast and easy way to design the layout of a store based on square footage and also products from the Verizon PDF Store catalog. I took Verizon's PDF catalog and created icons of each them. I set up a grid floor with each grid square equaling 1 square foot. The icons were built to width and length so that visually you could see how items would layout in the store. By dragging and dropping items below up into the grey area, it will automatically calculate the cost of the item keeping a running total. By clicking the Make Notes Button, a panel will appear from the bottom with a list of the items and which ones have been selected and their quantity. At the end you can do a print screen and you now have a quick blueprint of a store layout with a cost assessment. You can even put in the cost of carpeting and it will calculate the cost base off the square footage of the store set.
