My mums from Malaysia , my dads from Birmingham. While I spent a little time in Malaysia as a kid, I was mostly raised in Britain.
The first Game Engine I used was “genesis 3D” which came part of a bundle of items in a cheesy box titled “game programing starter kit 3″ in the mid 90s, it was comprised of loosely related books and software and didn’t really show you how to make a game.
I started learning 3D software in School, it was pretty basic, Maya & 3ds MAX had not yet emerged as the most popular software.
I did ‘Multimedia’ in college and ‘Digital 3D Design’ in uni, I started tinkering in Unreal building a few levels, then I worked on a CryEngine Mod called Open Outcast.
I’m currently working on my first independent game.
