Just starting off coding up my first iOS / maybe android game, thought it'd be a good idea to get involved with the tigsource peeps.

Just getting started in game development and have my blog at http://www.refreshcreations.co.uk/games/

I'm fairly green to some aspects of game dev but i'm hoping my web dev background will help me out a fair bit, using unity/javascript as the main language.

Hoping to make a different take on the retro game penguin adventure, will keep you posted

Looking good!

Not sure how hard it would be to port from iOS to droid, but droid does use java with its SDK.

Thanks I'm looking at using unity for the language to make porting as simple as possible.

Got myself pretty well set-up now with a fairly basic android device and a 4th gen ipod touch for testing.

Not sure how much planning I should put into this before venturing into the code, I'm trying to have my plan all sorted before getting to a coding stag, which is rare for me as I usually work in more of an ad-hoc (read chaotic) style but it's not always produced the best outcome.

I' hoping to get the main demo assets and plans for the gameplay in-place before doing the coding, is this considered to be good practice in game development?

Welcome, man. Hope to see your work soon.

Cheers dude, on that note I think I may have to grab me a coffee and of course send out a bunch of virtual coffees to all :D
