NEWS! I have a new personal website targeted to Game Development and Programming. Check it out!

Welcome to my PC games, tutorials and demos page where you can find my latest experiments as freeware and/or shareware programs ready to download.

As researcher at the gameLAB I have started to get in touch with the very exciting world of computer games and game technology, including many very interesting and instructive tools, both commercial and free, that can be used to unleash our creativity.

As first step, I'd like to introduce you to some useful free resources for your own games (I am sure you'll find these extremely interesting and worth of attention, if you don't already know about them):
Now, despite being involved in some "state of the art" game projects at work, I felt the wish of doing some little "old fashioned" but fun games in my spare time (and this is actually quite useful to practice one's programming skills: one thing is working in a well organized team at work in a fully featured lab, another working all on our own in the evening on our laptop at candlelight :) while trying to solve, without any external help, all the little issues and problems that even the simplest game can arise) and here you can download the results. More games will be added as soon as I complete them and, who knows, maybe in about one year I might have had enough time to write a very nice little game, so come back from time to time! ;-)
