Hey, I'm Ryan. I'm engaged to my wonderful fiance, Amanda. She keeps me responsible as I become a caveman when she's not around. I try to stay a young 31, but my grey hairs are quickly betraying me. Sports, activities, games, family and anything in front of a computer will generally keep me happy.
The first coding project I started on my own was a turn based game in C++. I remember crashing the computer once the hero had to walk more than 13 tiles. Pathing and genetic algorithms were a bit too much for me back in the day, so hopefully age and experience will see me through this time around. Regardless, there is nothing more exciting than being able to pursue a passion, so I'm loving this contest.
Armed with little to no game development experience, the Brothers Campbell are attempting to make video games for a living. We believe the best way for us to learn is to do what comes naturally to brothers — Compete! The challenge is to see who can make the most successful video game on a budget of $25,000 and in one year’s time. The duel begins on April 7th, 2014 and we'll be documenting the journey.
It’s simple. The most profitable game wins. We’ll have 6 months to market the game after the one year development deadline on April 7th, 2015.
