Completely Off Topic: Sleeping Dogs

I mentioned a while back that I'm a video game designer.  Today I can show you the game I've been making for the past few years:


We're not quite done yet but will be soon. As with any game development project the hours are occasionally very long, though sometimes not.  As we wrap this up I'll have less and less time for trains, and then suddenly an abundance, as shall be evidenced by the the frequency of my posts here.

  1. Wow! That's amazing! I'm an old Atari 2600 guy, so the advances made in the gaming space since my heyday continue to blow me away. I also have to say I'm impressed with your line of work...that's a pretty cool profession and some excellent work! My 13 Y.O. son spends all of his free/hobby time on Skyrim, Crysis, etc... so he'll be interested in seeing what you do for a linving, and what you do for fun! Thanks for sharing this 'off topic' video! Pretty cool!

  2. Hi Jaggy,

    Love the trailer. You just got to work out how to incorporate a tram or two into the game ;)

    By the way, I apologize for not responding to your comment about the LINT. Usually I get an e-mail notice when someone comments, but not that time. Anyhow, I've been having problems with my LINT. It's very light weight so there's poor contact between the wheels and track. It doesn't run very smoothly and I haven't had time to sort out the kinks. Having said that, Brawa sells a 3 car LINT. Eurorail Hobbies has two listed that you might want to have a look at, but I don't know if they are any better than Trix.
