So about a year ago, I spent my last summer interning for a small gaming company doing some programming work. At that time (and subsequent half a year part time work), I have worked on a game that happens to be release NOW.
And it is...

Here's some screenies: (

Granted, it's not the second coming of Christ, but it's my first real game I had a chance to work on and the first release I was officially part of, so needless to say, I am quite excited and proud.
So yea. You should buy it to support me.
:D
EDIT: Oh yea in that screenshots, see that radar on the bottom right? Yea, I totally coded that in :D

Awesome dude, congratulations! I keep seeing this title popping up here and there on news sites, looks like it's getting a fair bit of publicity.

Cool beans! :D
So the company you've been working at is Bad Robot Interactive? Is that owned by JJ Abrams?
Yakoob on 8/5/2009 at 16:19
No, Naked Sky Entertainment. We've done most of the work, the game runs on an in house developed engine.

That's fantastic! You coded... a machine that goes PING! Or could have gone PING, anyway. :D
Good stuff, dude. Congrats! Looks like a pretty cool game.
