1.7. Big Brother Plug It In, this was the Big Brother game for Channel 4 in 2005, based around an old game called pipemania were the player had to plumb pipes for the flow of water. For Plug It In the idea was to lay cables from the power socket to the camera avoiding lawnmowers and housemates who would appear and move randomly in the game.
2. Developed using Ensequence On-Q the following projects to run on Sky:
2.1. Big Brother Plug It In, please see liberate description above.
2.2. Channel 4 Worddrop. A port of the Liberate version of Worddrop from Gamehog to OpenTV. New graphics were used and game play was basically the same - letters drop down and the player selects them to build up a word, each level requires more and longer words.
2.3. Turtle Twist. A technical demo written using Ensequence On-Q. The game was a "columns" clone and was produced as a demo game for Freethinking and Ensequence
3. Developed using HTML, JavaScript and CSS for the IPTV browsers Oregan, Ant Fresco, Ant Galio a version of Chat Box, this is currently not live on any platform as yet.
4. Administration of Linux based servers, managing various server processes (MySQL, Apache, etc).
