Meet The Team - Josh Terry

Hi, I'm Josh, Boosh Studios' lead artist. I'm really excited about making our games look pretty.

I'm a sophmore in the Art & Animation major at Champlain College. This major is a lot of fun, but also a lot of work. A majority of my time is spent doing 3D and 2D art. I LOVE Photoshop and learn new ways to use it all the time.

In what little spare time that I have I play guitar, watch movies, play table-top games, make table-top games, and go to whatever athletic outings my friends cook up. I like sci-fi movies. My favorite table-top games are Warhammer 40k and Warmachine. Oh yeah, and the one that Ray and I are making: Hypernova. I do Ultimate Frisbee too.

The most influential video game for me was probably GoldenEye 007. I remember playing this and thinking that games couldn't get any cooler or more realistic. Things have changed.

I'm from western New York, but my goal is to stay in Burlington for the summer. I'll hopefully be doing other art jobs to pay the rent while working for Boosh.

Feel free to contact me at jtgamedev-at-gmail.com

Meet The Team - Ray Ortgiesen

Naturally, our programmer starts his post with "Hello world". I'm Ray, a founding member of Boosh Studios and resident snarky game designer.

I'm a sophomore at Champlain College like the rest of the bunch. I hail from Rhode Island, which is where I'll be spending the summer. Escaping to the beach and probably working at a crappy part time job when I'm not developing flash games.

Here at Boosh I'll be the Lead Designer and Producer for the first project at least, making sure everybody stays in line and that we have something to show. We'll be doing a one month production cycle and will have our first game out by the end of May, I promise.

In my spare time I play guitar, do tabletop gaming like Warhammer 40k and Warmachine, and play video games (naturally). I come from a strong first person shooter background, being born and raised on Doom and Half-Life, but I'll play just about anything. Lately I've been playing a lot of Left4Dead and sizing up the competition over on Kongregate.

If you want to get in touch with me for whatever reason feel free to drop me an email at ray.ortgiesen-at-gmail.com. Until next time, happy gaming!

Meet The Team - Mark Desmarais

Hello, world. I'm Mark D. and I'm one of the founding members of Boosh Studios.

I am a sophomore in the Electronic Game Design major at Champlain College in Burlington, VT. I'm from, and I'll be spending the summer in, Londonderry, NH.

In Boosh Studios I'll be working as the lead programmer/engineer for our upcoming Flash game. I have only about a month's experience working in ActionScript, but I have a background in Java and C++.

In my free time I watch a lot of television and screw around online. I'm loving Breaking Bad these days, and highly recommend it to anyone. I haven't been gaming as much as I'd like, but I still hit up the casual round of DotA once in a while. I also finally got my fists on the Phoenix Wright games, which are fantastic.

Um, so, that's all I have. If you want to contact me for business reasons, my e-mail is markldesmarais-at-gmail.com. If you just want to chat, you can get me on AIM at RdArrogantKnight, and my casual e-mail is redarrogantknight-at-gmail.com. I often play on Kongregate, where I go by Malky. Feel free to send me a message anytime!
