He has worked on a number of games, among them Aliens Versus Predator (1999), Taito Legends (2005 Empire Interactive, PS2, Win, XBox) – a collection which transposed various older works to newer machines, including several variants of Space Invaders – and the fantastical Adventure / God Game hybrid Ghost Master (2003 Sick Puppies, Mac, Win) designed by Gregg Barnett, Chris Bateman.
