Journal

Well, kind of old news now I have been working there for a month!

I am working for Torus, a video game company in the outskirts of Melbourne :D I'm a level designer and right now I'm working on a new Scooby-Doo game.
It's so awesome! But it is aimed at a younger audience so don't expect it to be epic (and don't try to compare it to F.E.A.R, which one person commented under the article. No Torus did not make F.E.A.R lol!). I'm gonna talk people into buying it anyway XD
Checkout the screens! I placed that lamp in the first screen hehe.

Other news: I finally got my PSP modded and I'm now addicted to DJ Max! It's kinda DDR cross Guitar Hero type music game with awesome Japanese pop music :) You can't buy it outside of Asia, so you will probably have to get a PSP modded to experience it. It's awesome!!

:iconjosebabarock: Thnx so much for the pic!!

Good work! ;D

Just curious, but how did you go with interviews and stuff like that? Did you hand in a showreel or just bring in a portfolio?

Good luck anyways! I'm sure that this Scooby Doo will be EPIC now that you're designing levels :D
