Quigibo's Return
« on: May 26, 2012, 02:45:04 pm »
Hi guys, I know I've been taking a break for a while from Axe development and the forums here, but I'm pleased to announce that starting tomorrow, I will be resuming :)

As some of you know, I have been spending a lot of time at work and school, but now that I've graduated, its going to be just working full time.  What I did not say before is the company I am working for because previously we were in stealth mode meaning that most things had to remain secretive.  But now that we did our public launch last Monday, I can talk more about it.  The company is called Leap Motion and we create 3D input device that tracks precise motions of your fingers and hands in full 3D (sub-millimeter accuracy).  It will eventually be integrated into monitors, phones, and laptops as a replacement for touch screens and mice, but for now the device is standalone.  Pre-orders ship out around December and you should see it on store shelves shortly after that.

If you have some cool ideas and a good coding background, you can get a free developer kit if you apply now, so encourage you to apply if you're interested.

By the way, another community member is also interning here via a recommendation. :)

Awesome! Great to see you back!

I'd seen an article about the Leap on OMG! Ubuntu! a few days ago, but I didn't realize you worked for them. That's really cool!


Spoiler For Projects:

My projects haven't been worked on in a while, so they're all on hiatus for the time being. I do hope to eventually return to them in some form or another...

Spoiler For Pokemon TI:
Axe port of Pokemon Red/Blue to the 83+/84+ family. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia:
My big personal project, an original RPG about dimensional travel and a few heroes tasked with saving the world.
Coding-wise, on hold, but I am re-working the story.

Spoiler For Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia Origins: Sky's Story:
Prequel to Nostalgia. On hold, especially while the story is re-worked.

What I did not say before is the company I am working for because previously we were in stealth mode meaning that most things had to remain secretive.

Until I read the rest of your post, I thought you got hired by TI or something O.O

Anyway welcome back. I haven't been active much lately since I was extremely busy too, hence the lack of news articles from myself. D:

Also Leap Motion looks awesome.
