GW:EN — In-Game Trailer
ArenaNet has released a new trailer for Guild Wars: Eye of the North.
High resolution versions are available at the official Guild Wars website.
My First Day at ArenaNet
As I mentioned in my last post, I’m not taking any break between jobs. After a restful Memorial Day weekend, I officially started work as a game designer at ArenaNet, the creator of Guild Wars. ArenaNet’s most recently announced projects are Guild Wars: Eye of the North, an expansion set in Tyria, the world players explored in the first Guild Wars campaign, and Guild Wars 2.
It has always been my desire to work on PC Strategy and RPG games, and ArenaNet stands among the best in PC game development. I’m very excited about what’s in store for the future of Guild Wars and am really looking forward to working on the game. All in all, it’s been a pretty good start to the summer.
My Last Day at Amaze Entertainment
Today was my final day as an employee of Amaze Entertainment. After a great deal of deliberation, I decided that it was time to move on and pursue other opportunities. I was employed by Amaze Entertainment for nearly three and a half years. During that time, I helped ship five games for the Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS. Amaze Entertainment was a great place to begin my career, and I am extremely proud of my accomplishments.
My next venture will begin in a few days time. I’ll post an update once everything has officially begun.
PotC: At World’s End — Exclusive Park Content
Starting today, visitors at Walt Disney World and Disneyland can bring a Nintendo DS and a copy of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End into the park to unlock exclusive content.
Nintendo DS wireless hotspots, the locations of which are indicated with “X” marks, are hidden near the Pirates of the Caribbean rides. Using the DS Download Play interface, visitors can download a small application from the hotspot that unlocks additional cheat codes and character costumes in the Nintendo DS game.
PotC: At World’s End — Released
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End is now available for purchase for the Nintendo DS. The movie release will follow this Friday.
Disney Interactive Studios has issued an official press release:
Inspired by the events of the third film, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End for the Nintendo DS focuses on adventure, platforming and puzzle solving as players explore environments and experience touch screen dueling to slash, parry and dodge using the Nintendo DS stylus. In addition to wireless multiplayer games such as dueling and pirates’ dice, players can download “cheats” through a special Nintendo DS Download Program available starting today and continuing through Labor Day exclusively at Disneyland and Walt Disney World.
PotC: At World’s End — One More Week
My latest game, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End for the Nintendo DS, will be released in one week on May 22, 2007. It’s available for pre-order from a number of online retailers.
PotC: At World’s End — GameSpot Hands-On
Following up on their previous preview of the Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End games, GameSpot has released a hands-on preview of the Nintendo DS version. Three gameplay videos were posted along with the preview.
PotC: At World’s End — GameSpot Preview
GameSpot has posted a preview of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End, the latest (announced) game I’ve worked on for the Nintendo DS. The preview includes a few screenshots of the adventure game as well as the touch driven dueling mode. Most of the copy is about the Xbox 360 and Wii versions of the game, developed by Eurocom Entertainment Software, but there’s a nice summary of the DS version near the end.
Amaze Purchased by Foundation 9
Amaze Entertainment, my employer, has just announced that the company will be acquired by Foundation 9 Entertainment. Assuming all goes as planned, the deal should be finalized sometime around the end of the year.
