itch.io

I'm Jerry Howell, I'm 46 yr old disabled guy. 

I learned to code w/ vbdos in about 2001, didn't mess with it much until 2012, when I made  free webgame that got a few million plays and my web service cancelled. In 2015 I became physically disabled and had much more free time due to not working. I tried game dev as a business in 2016, never really polished & perfected the game(battle bash) it's free on itch if you wanna try it out.  In 2018 I launched a cryptocurrency and still contribute to it some. Currently looking for a project to fill my time, and learning new stuff is a plus.

My favorite games of all time, in no order because it's difficult to even pick, let alone sort.

• minecraft
• world of warcraft
• fallout NV
• elder scrolls daggerfall

Languages I can make my way in and rough level:

• javascript: poor
• vb / vbnet: decent
• c++: intermediate
• c#: poor

Dev environment:

• HP elitebook 8570p, 4 core 12g ram 1080p 2012 laptop
• vscodium or geary

any chance on seeing gamepad support on android version?

I am talking to a publisher about battle bash, they are offering art services. I would love to have someone on tap for future projects though, please send me a link to your portfolio!

Hey gang, I make https://hypermonkey.itch.io/battle-bash . Right now, art is my games weakes point, and I'd like to change that. Check out my screenshots and post or send me a mockup! You would have to work on spec, I have 0 income atm but I am honest.

I am building a windows store version today, unsure how long the approval period is, but I will let you know once it is there.

Another day another build! Now has 3 levels *SHOULD* work with 2 gamepads, various bugfixes.

Well crap, that's terrible! I use 8.1 and haven't seen any issues, perhaps I will upgrade my dev machine.

New version 5/1/16! Today's enhancements include a splash screen and menu, new music, one more level, and the ability to win.

Please try it out and let me know what you think!
