Kevin-TappingCREATIVE DIRECTOR
Having played many games over the years from my old Atari 2600 through my ZX Spectrum years and pretty much every other system in between up to my Xbox 360, I have a passion for great games and interactive entertainment.

I’m very creative with my story telling something I have always done but since joining Train2Game and studying for the TIGA Diploma in video games design, this has allowed me to bring some of my stories to life through games.

Some of my big achievements since joining the course are being lead designer for Soul Wars a MMORPG, which was a fantastic challenge on my story writing, team management but more importantly my game design skills. I was also student of the month in September 2009!

I have a theory on design and that is “Keep it simple!” some of the greatest games ever made are of the simplest design, and the way forwards with games is by looking back on what has been and what made it good and how it can be recreated with today’s technology.
