There were so many game dev studios in the North West of England in the 80's/90's.
Binary Design Ltd. was located in Parsonage Gardens, central Manchester. This is where we took data off a PCB for the Amiga/ST version of a fave of mine; Double Dragon.

On my return to Software Creations (late 90's) I was put on a game that was running behind schedule. I did a few late nights to help get the art done, rendering a bunch of characters and environments.
That game was Spider-man & Venom: Maximum Carnage SNES.

Officially, I can say it's not my first rodeo, after last night.

Went to my first Rodeo last night.
While navigating the petting zoo with my grandkids, I was harassed by this guy.
He thought my bracelet was food.
Good times.

The S.S. Typhon was a unique class ship created for Star Trek: Invasion.
It had a closed defensive state or be open & aggressive.
Built for confrontation, and it was captained by Commander Worf.
That's a powerful combo!

This was a visual diagram drawn by my good friend, Han Randhawa on Star Trek: Invasion. I asked him to put it together, to show our two timelines 1) the player's perspective of the story. 2) the events that caused the story to unfold.

Darksiders at E3 2009.
Had a great time at that show. THQ put some effort into the Darksiders' area. The game got some attention there.

Genepool was a studio I formed with a bunch of people from Warthog. It was based inside the Bruntwood Hall Manor house on land with a park. We had our own TOWER to sip tea a view the lands around us.
We made X2: Wolverine's Revenge there.

AAaaahhhh the classic pretending to be asleep at work.
This was during the development of STAR TREK: INVASION. Loved having all our concept art pinned up around the walls around me.
