Wow, things have been ultra quiet on the site recently, sorry about that! I’ve been buried under some sersiously intense deadlines for some seriously fun projects. Here’s a few specific updates to let you know what’s been going on…
Websites:
I’ve been working on a whole host of sites recently, all of which are awaiting release and most of which (bizarrely) are MMO related! I’ve gone from doing almost no MMO related games and sites to working on 5! Crazy and immense fun at the same time!
—————————————————–
Games:
Wii:
I’m back to work on the Wii game that I started over a year ago (which was paused for about 6-8months) so there will be loads more info on that beauty as it becomes public. I’m bloody loving this project!
Steam & X360:
For the past few weeks I’ve been working (hard…very, very hard) on the menu’s, HUD and general UI for a kick ass new game that’s due out on Steam and X360. This is one of, if not the most amazing project I’ve had the honour of working on, its been a blast! Again, more info soon.
iPhone & iPad:
Man, this industry is booming right now and the amount of iPhone related enquiries I’m seeing is mind boggling. At the moment I’m working on (working on also includes completed and as yet un-released) 4 new iPhone games and 1 iPad game with a mixture of companies, all of which have been great to work on! Unfortunetly, none of them are under the Joystick Generals as JG is on pause for the next few months until both Chris and I can settle our current crazy schedules.
Web:
Yep, I’m dabbling in some web games at the moment, actually, more specifically Facebook games on the whole, creating the UI for 3 MMO’s. This is fairly new territory for me and has been amazing to work on. I cannot wait to get them into the portfolio.

Email Delays:
I know I post this message about every 2 months, but its back again. Due to my workload there has been A HUUUUGE backlog on my email replies and I am doing all that I can to get back to everyone, so if your waiting, thanks for being patient, I havent forgotten about you and I WILL be back in touch as soon as I can.
Thanks everyone, watch this space, there is lots to be released :)
Yesterday was phenominal, we made it to 8th in the games charts!!! Thanks for all the downloads! To celebrate we are going to continue the free period!!! Lets see if we can push this pig into the top 5…maybe even number 1???
Its been all quiet over at the Joystick Generals camp for the past few weeks, but we have something VERY special instore for you all tomorrow! On Tuesday the 27th April…tomorrow…there will be a big event in the world of Super Turbo Action Pig!!
I just wanted to post up this bit of promo art I did for the epic new update to Trenches. As the guys over at TGW put A HUGE amount of work into creating the amazing co-op and vs mode, they wanted to have a new piece of art to promote it, showing the British solider and the German soldier facing off in a true 1 on 1 fashion. This was great fun!
Also, to go along with the update, they are giving away a free iPad! If you fancy winning yourself a free iPad, check out the competition over at TGW, as lets face it, getting a free iPad for playing an awesome game is pretty much a no brainer ;)
The reviews are coming in thick and fast, and you all seem to love it! We are sooooo pleased with the feedback! Thanks to everyone that has bought it so far and everyone that has been wishing us well around the world! We have SO many more features and play modes lined up :)
Yes, you read it right, a free Super Turbo Action Pig, actually, as many as you like!
Yeah ok, so its not a free copy of the game, but something aaaalmost as cool. Its a printable and build-able piggy all of your very own, yey!
All you need to do, is download the file by clicking on the image, print it off and then simply cut it out and stick it together! And there you have it, hours of endless fun, flying your very own Super Turbo Action Pig around your office, home or hell, just about anywhere!
There will be more of these to come too, so get ready to complete your very own set :)
Yey, I finally launched the Super Turbo Action Pig trailer! I went the whole hog with this baby and lavishly created it in lovely HD 720p, which is a tad over the top for a game that runs at 480×320, but what the heck, its was a great chance to do some animated cartoon cut scenes in HD :)
If you like the trailer, why not head on over to YouTube and give us a lovely 5 star rating :)
The game is going into submission today, so I’ll keep you posted, and as soon as its launched, you’ll hear about it here first!
I know most of you have been waiting to hear this quite some time, but Super Turbo Action Pig is now complete! We had the final testing session last week, which highlighted one last teeny weeny bug, which we can now say is ironed out! We’re launch ready! We have a little PR work to do this week, but by the end of this week, the game will be submitted and in the App Store very soon (fingers crossed).
Just before we submit the Pig, we’re going to launch the new site too, which is also complete, so keep your eyes peeled for a site launch alert as its going to be cram packed with cool downloads, screenshots and info.
OH MY GOD, what an awesome day out this was!!! I stumbled upon an amazing little bird of prey sanctuary in Preston, what a phenomenal find, it is wonderful place called Turbary Woods, run by a dedicated bunch of devoted charity workers who are crazy about birds of prey.
What can I say here, this was a dream concept to work on!! Ferrari, Ferrari, really, what else can I say? This actual concept for was a Ferrari dealer in LA. Niiiiiiiiice.
Twittering
