Richard Sneyd (BA Hons.) is the founder and CEO of CyberMyth Games, an indie game development studio based in Country Cork, Ireland. His role within the company requires that he wears many hats, including that of a programmer, designer, digital 2D and 3D artist, sound designer, scriptwriter, texture artist, leader, marketer, and business man.
He is also a fully registered, qualified, and highly experienced lecturer. His specialty subjects include 3D modeling and animation, computer game programming, 2D image processing, game design, desktop audio, psychology, consumer behavior, human resources, and business management. In addition to classroom teaching, he is actively involved in online education, regularly publishing new courses, and various other learning materials, such as books and tutorials, in conjunction with CyberMyth Games.
He is enthusiastic about his work, and his students and colleagues think of him as a very dedicated and accomplished teacher. All of his courses and books are characterized by a steady, incremental flow of information, and a lucid teaching style that is easy to understand and follow for all.
He is a husband to his wonderful wife, Jennifer, and father to a wonderful son, Darius.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Packt Publishing team for their outstanding work in helping to bring this bookmy first ever published bookto fruition. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with them throughout the entire process and appreciate their candid encouragement and feedback, which ultimately raised the standard of my work. Along similar lines, I would like to thank the reviewers, Innes Borkwood, Daniel Bendell, and Jean-Marc "jihem" QUR, whose poignant criticisms and observations have also served to raise the standard of the final product.
I also wish to acknowledge the tireless efforts of the Stencyl development teamprincipally, Jonathan Chung, founder of Stencyl Inc, as well as all of the hardworking members of the community who have contributed to the development of the Stencyl game engine and toolset. Thanks to their efforts, Stencyl has enabled a plethora of designers, artists, and hobbyists to realize their game ideas, which may not otherwise have been possible, and has evolved from its hopeful beginnings into the remarkable, cross-platform game development system that it is today.
I reserve my final acknowledgements for my beautiful wife, Jennifer, and my son, Darius, whose awesome baby cuddles made it all worthwhile. Without their patience, love, and support, none of this would have been possible. Thank you.
Dan Bendell is a budding young developer, currently studying computing and games development at the University of Plymouth. He is expected to complete his studies in 2016, after completing a year's work in the industry. On finishing his academic endeavors, he wishes to pursue his dream of either starting up a games development company or working at one, allowing him to create games that will truly engage his audience, as well as working with a variety of new people on a daily basis.
Jean-Marc "jihem" QUR is a senior computer science engineer and is also the author of numerous articles in the French specialized press and books (on WinDev). Self-taught, he provided software for more than 20 years in every domain: decision-making methods, artificial learning, robotics, and autonomous systems. As a technology evangelist, he has chosen to support Livecode and Stencyl (since the migration from Flash to Haxe). He actively contributes to the community (extensions, translation, and support). Undoubtedly, you will meet him one day on the Stencyl forums. And you will be welcome!
