Ocarbot has just sold over 1000 copies on the Apple iPhone® and to celebrate we have released a range of t-shirts, hoddies and pajamas? Have a look see what you think, the clothing shop can be found here.  I have also finally got around to releasing the Pixelh8 “Digital Heart” clothing.

The OCARBOT project continues to develop with a Free EDU version planned for release on November 23rd, 2011. Again all funds raised by the sale of t-shirts etc will go towards furthering the project and help towards my Uni fees.

I was fortunate to be asked to give two talks to at BT, Adastral Park to ICT teachers and technicians, the talk mainly focussed on my previous work and looked at how “OCARBOT” was developped for education.

They were both great groups, both passionate about using tech in exciting ways and I look forward to working closely with some of them in their schools on new projects.

Here it is, my second game on the Apple iPhone®.

“OCARBOT” is a puzzle platformer with over five gameplay zones spread over fifty levels and features an original chip tune soundtrack. The app is available at the Apple App store here.  It’s not free as the funds from the sale of the game will help pay  my student fees for my PhD into researching music and technology for teaching children music.

The game itself took three months from beginning to end and will actually be used as a teaching tool to teach children about videogames.  I have documented the entire process from beginning to end for a series of lectures and you can you can read more about the development of the game here.
