Welcome to the Fluffle team page :)
Hello, my name is Kris and I'm a software engineer from Minneapolis, MN. Most of the work I've done in "the Industry" has been data related ... data warehousing big data. Though I've worked in a variety of programming languages, and have a deep understanding of data, I've rarely had the opportunity to really explore front-end work and develop something really slick that just begs to be used, clicked, played with.
Data: Databases (Oracle, Informix, MySql), ETL: Ab Initio
Programming: PHP, Python, Ruby on Rails, C, C++
I've not yet picked my challenge, though I'll likely go with the HTML5 games challenge. Working through making a multiplayer, interactive, educational experience would be an interestin challenge.
Not set in stone but I've been wanting to play with Phaser 2.0, so I'd likely start with that and add as necessary.
