Hi my name is Chris Geehan, and I am one half of HyperDuck Music Studios.

I was told to make a post to say that Dan (Byrne-McCullough) & I have joined the community. Dan does not chime in on the community as much, just because he doesn't enjoy forum trolling like I do, but he knows everything I know, and one other thing, which he won't tell me. Git.

We're a two man/boy/duck team of two! That's right, the grammar.. thing. And we are freelance audio contractors, or freelance soundtrack composers, or freelance sound effects designers! Essentially, we are freelance in most of our work to date, and we're quite flexible as well, in terms of what type of work we can do, and our yoga teacher is always calling us benders, so we must be flexible! Hm.

It is good to finally move in here and even better to be welcomed with such warmth by the community. So without further delay, I give you..

THESHAMLESSPLUG!

http://www.hyperduck.co.uk for all our latest official updates that we're publicly allowed to talk about (yay freedom)
http://hyperduck.blogspot.com for my own (Chris) random blabberings/bloggerings. Besides the Eo-Community Blogposts, which.. I just.. saw, yes.

Thanks again, nice to be here.
Chris & Dan.]]> Sat, 06 Mar 2010 21:18:23 +0100 http://eocommunity.net/news/33566 http://eocommunity.net/news/33566 Global Game Jam this year! The theme was "Deception", and over 50 countries took part, setting new records for the extremely popular game developing event. If you've never heard of Global Game Jam, it's basically a worldwide event in which game developers gather together in groups to each make a game in a 48-hour weekend.

First we have Depict1, a game which Kyle Pulver describes as "a fun little game that is sure to make you angry at games in general." The game was made at the Retro Affect Studio jam site in Gilbert, Arizona.



And second, we have Eaty Guys and the Operator, a game developed by Matt Thorson and ChevyRay, who teamed up with 4 other developers at the SAIT, Calgary jam site in Canada.



There are many other great games! So don't for get to drop by the Global Game Jam website and check some of them out. Also, if you're interested in the event, make sure to sign up for 2011! It's great fun, and an awesome way to meet and work with new game developers.]]> Tue, 02 Feb 2010 05:57:39 +0100 http://eocommunity.net/news/33506 http://eocommunity.net/news/33506
Secondly, since we spend a lot of time on our creations, our site was rather static. This gave some outsiders the impression that our community was falling still. However we are still bursting with energy and lots of fun things are being done by our community. To give you a better idea of what's going on we've started an experiment with an open forum. We'll still have to see how it goes, what works and doesn't work, but we're looking for your feedback for that.

Lastly, our old site was from 2007. While still functional, we decided to go with a fresh look for our new site. We wanted the site to better reflect all our old creations rather then just promote our latest few.

We hope you like these changes and we are looking forward to your feedback. Let us know what you think about our updated community. ]]> Thu, 28 Jan 2010 12:44:47 +0100 http://eocommunity.net/news/33012 http://eocommunity.net/news/33012 Mon, 14 Dec 2009 19:27:44 +0100 http://eocommunity.net/news/32301 http://eocommunity.net/news/32301 Font Express, a bitmap font sprite sheet creation tool has been added to the site.  With this program you can create custom sprite sheets of fonts to be used in your Game Maker games as well as other programs]]> Sun, 13 Sep 2009 23:22:25 +0200 http://eocommunity.net/news/28683 http://eocommunity.net/news/28683 Skullpogo.]]> Sun, 12 Oct 2008 01:13:39 +0200 http://eocommunity.net/news/28638 http://eocommunity.net/news/28638 Waxy's Sushi Party, the latest game from Srehpog.  It's gonna make your head spin... in a good way.]]> Tue, 07 Oct 2008 00:14:06 +0200 http://eocommunity.net/news/28561 http://eocommunity.net/news/28561 Paper Flight and Jumper Three have been added to the site.
