Omg, HELL YES! I'm so excited to have an electrical engineer on board. I'm a computer engineering student, and none of these CS whippersnappers know anything about circuits.

Now we can make fun of them, because we know circuitry and differential equations. ;)

Furthermore, I'm going to have computer engineering/science courses, so I'm like the "Terminator" of information technology :lol:

Nice to be here! I have watched every single minute of the adventures in game development + every offtopic video in your channel :worship: :worship:

Hello. I'm new to this forum. My real name is Aaron. I am an Actionscript developer.

My interests into "real" game development will end as soon as I get a web browser game for xbox360. In the mean time, I plan on contributing what I can on the Flash gaming side. Would people be interested in some Flash game tutorials?

Hello World! :)

My name is Kostia Kaploon. I've been following the dev videos pretty much since the begging (from ch. 3-4) and I finally decided to come to the forums. I do mainly C++/SDL development.. though I have experimented with lots of different platforms (from Basic/VB to mobile Java to Flash)

I have a (currently unactive) blog at http://kostiak.wordpress.com/ and will (hopefully) get my first dev video soon.

So yeah.. I'm here..
kost.
