Who is this guy?

Hello! I'm Zach McAnally, a developer in Nashville who's begun to move into game development. I've begun learning Flash this week, using a plugin called Flixel, which looks like it'll allow me to focus more on the design aspects of the ideas I have rather than getting bogged down in Flash. Fair warning though-- I'm a programmer, developer, and designer; artist is nowhere in my skill-set.

For starters, here's something I was part of last weekend-- the MolyJam 2012. The goal was to build a game in 48 hours, based on one of the tweets of @PeterMolydeux (by the way, if you have twitter and don't follow @PeterMolydeux, you're missing out). I drove up to Lexington, the nearest MolyJam location, and joined Run Jump Dev's team.  We built the whole thing out of Unity, which was an engine I'd never worked in, but was surprisingly easy to work around. I'm pretty comfortable with C# too, so component writing was a snap.
