I'm Mark G, or Archangel Atom as I'm known on a few other sites.
I'm a game dev from North Yorkshire, a county in northern England. I'm currently studying game dev at college. My speciality is scrolling shooter games such as Project Plasma although I'm willing to experiment with other genres as well as I'm doing right now in one of my upcoming games which I hope to release as an open beta before the end of the year.
I am currently the sole member of one-man indie "studio" - Chaos Symbol.
I was brought to itch.io initially by the fact that it was a new platform and I figured "hey let's check this out." I was further attracted by the overall openness of the platform which you don't get with a lot of bigger platforms and decided to stay around simply because of that.
My primary game engine is GM:Studio however I'm also learning UDK and Flash at college and I hope to move onto those engines as well at some point.
Outside of game dev, I'm massively into mobile tech (mostly Android, but I do look at iOS-related stuff as well and I'm pretty much interested in ARM-based devices in general) and hope to develop more games for mobiles at some point (I've made Project Plasma Mobile, but that's a prototype and it turned out to be a disaster.)
I'm very active on Twitter. I don't tweet as much as I used to but I do keep track of what goes on. You can follow and contact me here: @ArchangelDPX
I also have a blog which I post mostly game dev stuff, but also a few personal things and I even put a few rants up if I need to get something off my chest which can be found here. (I'm pretty outspoken on certain matters, some game-related, some not.)
I'll probably get round to posting a full bio on my blog at some point, but for this forum post I'll keep things relatively brief.
EDIT: So much for keeping it "brief" lol.
