  7. Example CryEngine3 Scenario

  8. Kaneva Massive Multiplayer Online Game • Worked for a Massive Multiplayer Online Game company called Kaneva as a Game Tools Engineer.

  9. Projects I worked on at Kaneva • Helped Integrate Adobe Flash Technology into Virtual World. • User Interface programming. • Game-play Scripting • Maintaining and fixing bugs in game engine. • Maintaining and fixing bugs in game patcher. • Maintaining game installer.

  10. Kaneva – Integrated Flash Technology into Virtual World • Enabled players to play interactive flash games in our virtual world.

  11. Kaneva – Menu Scripting

  12. Kaneva – Event System • Developed a robust event system so that player’s could post events in game and go to their friend’s hangout quickly.

  13. Kaneva – Instant Buy • Added the ability to allow player’s to right click other player’s and instantly buy their outfits. • Enabled players to select any object in world and instantly buy it.

  14. Kaneva - Patcher • Maintained our mmo’s patcher.

  15. 2 Motorola Internships • Developed a 3D avatar manipulation library for Motorola 3D avatar technology. • Developed xml based scripting language and parser for Motorola User Interface development. Wrote code in C#, C++, and Java

  16. Motorola Example Work

  17. Motorola Example Work Visual Face recognition for 3D Avatar Kiosk

  18. Personal Projects • I have done my own hobby games and demos for various platforms. • Platforms include, PC, iPhone, Playstation, Nintendo DS, Cell Phones, and Gameboy Advance

  19. Sushi Ninja for iPhone

  20. Sushi Ninja Work • Lead Programmer / Project Manager • Wrote all the Gameplay code using the Unity3D game engine • Wrote the foundational Design Documentation • Contracted and Managed Artists • Benched marked and profiled game on the iPhone.

  21. QoobTris • A 3D Tetris game with a twist.

  22. QoobTris Snapshots

  23. QoobTris Work • I wrote more than 80% of the code and architected the engine from scratch. • QoobTris utilizes the DirectX 9.0a API • Integrated Lua for game play scripting and expoused much of the engine to Lua. • Integrated Flash into engine for game menus • Developed a HUD scripting system for artists to easily plugin their assets. • Uses tinyxml for configuration scripts • Developed my own Particle Engine.

  24. SDL_Sprite and SDL_Font Libraries • Developed 2 popular C++ libraries for the SDL game engine API. • SDL_Sprite enables developers to use animated sprite sheets in their game with only a few lines of code. • SDL_Font enables developers to use bitmap fonts in their game with only a few lines of code.

  25. SDL_Sprite and SDL_Font Libraries Demos Ported libraries and demos to the Playstation Portable game console.

  26. Mather – C# Lite-Weight Linear Algebra Library

  27. Mather – C# Lite-Weight Linear Algebra Library • I developed Mather as an alternative for those who were interested in using vector/matrix calculations in C# without using the heavy weight DirectX api. • Mather is an open source freeware library that is portable to Windows Mobile cell phone devices. • Mather comes with utility functions that do many useful things such as detecting if a point is within 2 vectors.

  28. Flash / ActionScript Projects • I mostly use Flash for prototyping game designs and theories before implementing them in C++. • However I have written a couple of games in ActionScript along side several theoretical demos.

  29. Flash AI Node Navigation Graph • This demo allows a user to control a bot’s navigation by moving waypoints or nodes around the scene. • If the bot gets close to the red marker (the user’s mouse), it will chase it. Otherwiseit will go back to itspatrolling state. Written in ActionScript 3.0

  30. Flash BreakOut Clone • This game is a clone of the retro style BreakOut game. I originally wrote it in C++ using the SDL API. I then ported it to Flash. • This game includes powerups such aslasers. Written in ActionScript 2.0

  31. Flash Gozilla Game • This is a mini game that I originally wrote for the Gameboy Advance console. I ported it to Flash. • The helicopter must charge his gun and destroy Gozilla before he destroys Tokyo! Written in ActionScript 2.0

  32. Flash Dodger Game • This is a mini game where the player must dodge the rectangle obstacles and get the blue diamond to advance to the next level. Written in ActionScript 2.0

  33. Various Other Flash Demos • I have written various other Flash demos including my own 3D engine and particle system. • I have also used other popularActionScript 3.0libraries likeSandy 3D andAPE. Written in ActionScript 3.0 & 2.0

  34. For Code Samples: • QoobTris is Open Source! You can browse the Google SVN project page to get an idea of my coding abilities and style. • http://code.google.com/p/qoobtris/source/browse/#svn/trunk/CubeTrisApp http://www.brandonfogerty.com

  35. About Me - Education • 2008 – Graduated with Master degree in Computer Science from Georgia SouthWestern State University. • 2007 – Graduated with Bachelor degree in Computer Science from Georgia SouthWestern State University. Cum Laude Honor Graduate. • 2003 – Graduated from John S. Davidson Fine Arts Magnet High School.It was elected as one of the top 15 highschools in the USA for academics.
