In my spare time, I work on a few projects. You can read about them here.
toadwater
Toadwater is a strange game. I can’t remember what exactly drew me to it at first, but it’s somewhat very slowly paced so you can play it in the background while you’re doing other things.
After a year (or two, I can’t remember) I got bored with the game, but I was very interested in helping with the programming of the game. The client is written in C++ with MFC, and the server code is mostly PHP with a MySQL backend. At this point, the coder who provided the client and the foundation for the server code had left the project, so I joined the project.
Anyway, the game has changed owners several times over the last few years, but I continue to be the “client guy”. I also help with the server code and administration.
