Ian Brown's Blog

I am a director of Eidolon Studios Ltd and part-time lecturer at Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge, England.

I work with (at present) the Unity game engine and C# on games for mobile and desktop platforms, and feed that experience into my teaching.

You can follow Eidolon Studios at www.facebook.com/EidolonStudios and I occasionally tweet on @IanOfBrown.
