Kandu is an iPad app which allows kids and adults to build games or interactive applications with no prior programming knowledge.
My work consisted of figuring out how to create a minimal interface which would allow the user to visually edit and create simple and complex objects on screen.
Each object created could also be programmed with behaviours which required a different interface. This UI needed to access all of the various events, behaviours and relationships an object could posess and resond to without taking over the entire screen.
The UI was prototyped using javascript which was then implemented in Unity by Kandu engineers. Some prototyping done directly in Unity.

Here are a few of my old games which were created while I was employed at Kaboose. The games were original content for a group of websites whose target audience were either younger children aged 4-8 or the 'tween' demographic of kids aged 9-12. Kaboose was, along with all of its content and properties, later acquired by Disney.
I did the programming for these along with audio, UI, concept, tools...blah, blah, blah. Special mention to Bruce Simpson, Anthony Pilger and Shannon Mistry as their contributions made them possible.
