This iPhone App is another fun little time waster parents can hand to their child when they need a little distraction. Simple interactions, fun graphics and audio keep little kids engaged and it even has a “Big Kids” mode with more challenging game play. This is the second game to use our SmashIt game engine that was first used with Cookie Cruncher.

After observing parents handing off their phone to their toddlers to temporarily occupy them I created this fun little time waster. Simple interactions, fun graphics and audio keep little kids engaged and it even has a “Big Kids” mode with more challenging game play.

This is the first in a series of iPhone games that use the same home-grown game engine. A new game is easily generated with new media assets and some configuration parameters. I did all the visual design, sound design and wrote the music. My brother writes the code.

Auction Pitch, also known as just “Pitch” or “Setback”, is a descendant of the Mississippi riverboat game Seven Up. For this project I created a new visual design that could be dropped in to upgrade the existing assets. The interaction of the game reminded me of clockwork toys so I created images to match.

Assembly Line and Assembly Line Lite combine the challenge of a puzzle game with the fast pace of an arcade game. Players race the clock to complete over 100 challenging levels by building sets and runs out of the colored pieces from the moving conveyor belts.

IA and visual design for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn’s site. This site serves Brooklyn’s 1.6 million Catholics. They needed a modular approach to the page architecture that would allow them to incrementally consolidate hundreds of separate sites. A new navigation menu was also added to help expose more of what was available on the site while at the same time allowing visitors to focus on common tasks.
