We got a bit more ambitious with our gaming fantasies since then eh?

It blows my mind how far games have come and what a privilege it's been to see almost the entire evolution of an industry.

Catch me at the Guildford Games Festival 2026, Friday 20th February, 10 AM to 6 PM. Panel: Tools of the trade - inside the tech driving game innovation. 11 AM to 12 PM in the Glass Room (at G-Live, Guildford). Guildford.Games logo (left) and mascot (bottom right), with Sams picture in the centre.

If you are at the Guildford.Games Festival tomorrow, please come and say hello. You can catch me on the Tools of the Trade panel at 11am, or I'll be wandering around most of the day. Love to talk game-dev, tools, tech, and procedural generation (but I am human too if you just want to chat).
