Game Development Team Primary Role: Software Engineer

Hello, my name is Matt Chell and I am finishing up my second year of university.  I am majoring in Mathematics possibly with minors in Computer Science and Accounting.  In the game project, I am part of the software engineering team and the website team.  I grew up in Papua New Guinea because my parents are missionaries.  I enjoy playing game on the computer, programming and reading.

 At the beginning of the course they asked who would like to make the website.  I volunteered even though I had no experience.  I though it would be a great opportunity to learn how to do it.  Designing the layout for the webpage was different then designing the layout for a program because you have limited control of how the web browsers is going to render the web page.  I have enjoyed coding the web page.  Also the web page is the first coding project the I have done by my self which will be published publicly.

 The second code freeze is coming again.  It will be here before we know it.  Not having class on Monday May 23 does not help because it takes away an opportunity to communicate face to face.  It is exciting to being finishing the game that we have been working on for so long.

The major chucks of the game are pretty much done.  Now it is just implementing different bits of the program.  There is more of coding little bit in one part and then switching to other part of the program.  Now we are programming that parts that we can no longer put off.  It is exciting seeing the game come to completion.
