My name is Brent Hackers. I'm from the North East of England. I'm 23 years old and obsessed with media, specifically games. I work with my pet code monkey, David Crow on all of our projects. I love Indie games, Retro games and most other games besides. :P I am a bit of a geek, I design games first and foremost but I'm also a competent programmer and I'm trying to get good at graphics. :/ Me and Dave want to try our hands at just about everything, but my personal big goal is to produce an RPG with some real style and depth. Always happy to talk about games. I don't mind criticism where my work is concerned (I apparently came up with THE most unreadable box art ever conceived) and I would love to get more into the whole Indie community thing.

Glad I stumbled upon this site! I love indie games and just released my second one onto Xbox LIVE Indie (Melon Madness) so whoot! Plan on keeping some kind of record here of the progress of future titles.

We have two on the way now, one is being fixed for play-testing and the other is still in its early days. The first should be the platformer if all goes well (another for Xbox LIVE) and the other is an RPG that I started work ago a while back (in addition to years of planning) and I'm really excited about it.

The platformer (A Meloncholy Tale) should be something a little different. It has a story with voice acting and a bunch of unique bosses and some great music. Its also had us working on it back and fourth for a little over a year now so it will be nice to finally see it finished and released (hopefully before the end of the year).

The RPG is a little piece of my personal retro heaven and a project that I essentially started 5 years ago in my first year of college. I eventually made a basic mock-up engine in university as my final project (which did very well so thanks bob!) and I just recently ported the bulk of it into XNA with some much needed improvements, so hopefully I will at lest have a working engine with which to create my dream game very soon.

Guess that's all for now :) laters!
