Each month, ExPlay Plymouth hosts a 20 minute talk featuring special guests from the Indie Games community. February's speaker was Richard Weeks talking about How He Did It!
Richard has been in the games industry for over 18 years, both as a permanent employee and a contract programming consultant. Currently he works as a contractor/consultant for hire and in his spare time runs a small development team working on their first game which has been shown at previous meetups.
Richard started out at Psygnosis in the early 90's, then moved onto Pure, Stormfront Studios and LucasArts before going freelance in 2005. He has worked on an extensive list of games, including Microcosm, Bloodwake, Overlord DS & Wii and Viva Pinata PC. He is currently working on Bloodforge (XBLA) with Climax.
