Plan for Nicolas Quijano
by Nicolas Quijano · 12/04/2005 (8:17 am) · 5 comments
Hi there, long time no planny.
Starting tomorrow, Monday December 5th, I start working at Artificial Mind and Movement, a medium sized studio here in Montreal known for doing licensed IP titles.
But I'll be working on a AAA original IP xbox360 title.
Haven't been this psyched about gamedev in a long time.
Matter of fact, I thought I was done with it just a few weeks back :)
But, after a few months total break from it, it is my livelyhood, and A2M seems to be a good employer (good benefits, approved overtime as paid holidays, etc)
I also look forward to the challenge on working on a bigger team. should be interesting.
Been absent from the GG boards, and find it daunting to get back into it : if you're not browsing everyday, and a few times a day to boot, the volume of posts has become quite unmanageable, alas.
As for life outside games : played barely any games these last few months, and to rekindle myself to it, I'm resubbing to WoW, the game that made me realize I spent way too much time playing, hahahaha.
I'm on Elune, Fjord, lvl 46 or 47 Elven Hunter. Say hi if you're around...
Might start other alts on other servers...
But I said life outside games : still very involved in the local music scene, produced my first show in years last week (pictures), and just need a drummer to get my new band going, since the last one crashed and burnt about a month ago.
Any drummers in Montreal able to play hardcore into kicking out some jams ? :)
To all my buddies and friends from the GG community : sorry I didn't make it to IGC, it's just wasn't possible this year. I will do my best to be there in 2006, even if it's just to hang out with you guys, get drunk and maintain our long standing IGC traditions, hehe.
To GG : Congrats on all the recent developments !!!
My mind sometimes boggles at the sudden burst of growth GG seems to have gone through in the last year, a testament to the hard working crew at work there :)
Cheers, stay true,
Last but nost least : Keep On Torquin' !!!

And you were missed at IGC - if for nothing else than to have verbal fights with TomB ;-)

I haven't played much WoW after getting my mount about a month ago. But I know I'll be back. And if your band ever tours and comes to Seattle but your drummer pulls a Spinal Tap, give me a call.

Congratulations on the new job! I haven't played much WoW after getting my mount about a month ago. But I know I'll be back. And if your band ever tours and comes to Seattle but your drummer pulls a Spinal Tap, give me a call.
