Game - Noun - An activity engaged in for amusement1
Who am I?
I am an IT Graduate working for a major financial company that would rather not be associated with gaming (or even anything remotely fun) and shall therefore remain nameless. I have many years experience in IT, and a handful of years working for several start-up games companies. After reading the success stories of others I decided to dedicate a portion of my time to creating games and slowly building up a social site around them.
Lander is my first foray into Flash programming, and was intended solely as a learning experience. Thanks to Nats, Adam, Alex and Ben for testing it, and thanks to Dave for providing a decent hosting service and answering all my random PHP questions

What does the future hold?
An ideal situation for me would be to earn enough revenue to cover the bills and pay for beers. I have plenty more ideas for games up my sleeve, I just need to find the time and skills to see them through. So, if anyone has any ideas, comments or interesting anecdotes, please feel free to e-mail me.
Finally, I've decided to start a development blog to make it easier to articulate my thoughts, track changes on the game(s), et cetera. I'll put a link up when I've got round to writing one!
Proper finally, congratulations to Adam J Moore for attaining EVERY POSSIBLE HIGHSCORE. Your victory was fairly short lived, thanks to some determined individuals (cheers guys!), but it was a victory nonetheless.
