Java App - Ant Farm

Ant Farm is a Java app (Jar File) I created as an Artificial Intelligence project to put different methods of AI to test. The entire app was created from scratch. The development of the app provided me with a plethora of Java, Software Development, and AI programming... not to mention enjoyment watching the little critters run around.

The jar file and graphics need to be extracted and located together as they are in the .ZIP file.

Flash Game - Snow War
Snow War is a real time strategy game that I created after I made Castles. This was my attempt to "raise the bar" after creating Castles. It is made in flash and demonstrates my ability in Flash and programming. All of the programming, AI, and server connectivity was done using Flash's action script. I also Created a server in MS Basic to provide 2 player Head-to-Head play. The Flash app connects to the server via XML sockets. I entered Snow War into the IGF (Independent Game Festival) and it was also included in the Independent Game compilation which was sold at multiple retail outlets including Best Buy.

Art History Page - PSC Art Department

The Art History Study Guide was a 2 year part-time project.   This study guide was used by Survey of Art History I & II students at PSU as a helpful tool accessable anywhere on campus, highlighting the significant artists and works that would be in the class exams. This project was conducted with the class professors so that the end result was totally custom tailored to the class content and progression of the material being taught. The site uses some javascript, but the majority is just HTML.  Due to Copyright I can only provide a SMALL 1 page sample of the site.

Tour of Solar System
- Multimedia Project

Tour of the Solar System was an educational multimedia program I created for a class project.  This is a SMALL snipit of the larger 43 meg program.  The finished product has an intro screen, the map screen (this one, used to select which planet would be displayed) as well as 5 planets that you could "visit".  While at a planet, key features of each planet are explained by your alien tour guide. Further information about the planet is displayed as text.

Uno - Client server Project

Uno is a Client server applet I made in Java.  This FULL demo is modified from my "client - server" multiplayer game to demo the applet as a 1 Player uno game.  In my original app., many players can engage in 1-on-1 Uno matches, communicating via a server I also created in Java.  In this version, you play against the computer... I added the AI  after original version.
