Mat Dickie

Every industry has one. The free-thinking rebel that redefines the rules. He says what no-one else will say and does what no-one else will do. Fuelled by raw passion, he seizes an art form by the throat and drags it to its apex. What they invented, he makes it sing. His peers hate him but the public love his style. At once he intimidates and inspires; breaking down the walls that secure some yet block others. Welcome to MDickie.com - home of the games industry's first true 3-dimensional character! Whether he's the "hero" or the "villain" depends entirely on your perspective...

Look at this badass motherfucker, /prog/. You'll never be as cool as him if you only keep making toy programs.

I personally use Notepad2 and avoid any "makefiles"(which i consider bloated and poor design)^[1]

I use one include file for everything.
#include "void.h" //handles all the common functions,#defines,#ifdefs and #includes

Anything which uses makefiles is defective Sepples-level shit.
All the C code posts on my blog are void.h merged with somefile.c

Having mastered every single discipline that goes into making a game (from design and programming through to 2D graphics, 3D graphics, and even music), i've turned a notoriously bureaucratic process into something altogether more instinctive. It's the key to everything that's lacking in the mainstream: speed, creativity, and economy. Even the most sophisticated of projects can be churned out in a matter of months rather than years. They're more innovative and creative because there's nobody to compromise my vision or question my beliefs. And since there's only one person to pay, the end product can be picked up for the same price as your average CD or DVD (yes, i preside over the publishing process too!). All of which fuels a revolutionary movement that entertains, educates, and inspires in equal measure...

All of which fuels a revolutionary movement that entertains, educates, and inspires in equal measure. What used to be a faceless science has become an accessible art form that anyone can aspire to take part in. Delivering that message is a responsibility that this website takes very seriously; supplementing the games with a canon of insightful articles that lift the lid on this most elusive of professions. Behold an entire empire created and maintained effortlessly by one man. The dictionary definition of "independence" in full effect. See if you can feel it...

For some reason I saw the words "Gold Dicks" when I first skimmed over that. Maybe I should see a psychiatrist :(

the pleasure of replacing scientists with artists

What is it about Mat Dickie and his games that rub people the wrong way?

MD: Well, let's point out that we're talking about a minority here - a very loud minority, but a minority nonetheless. 90% of people that come into contact with my work take it the right way and are perfectly inspired. As for the others, if I'm being honest it's partly my fault and partly theirs. They're guilty of being bitter and insecure, and I'm guilty of taunting that insecurity with my brash, assertive attitude. Fundamentally, the problem is that I come from a sporting background where confidence isn't such a dirty word. I represent a new era of game development where any guy off the street can crack open a laptop and make an impact in this business. That frightens a lot of people that see the world of computing as their sanctuary - the one place where they can pretend to be powerful from behind a keyboard. At the end of the day, I'm an agent for change in this business and that's always going to threaten those that don't want things to change. After all, turkeys don't vote for Christmas! It's like R. Buckminster Fuller once said - you don't change things by adjusting the existing model, you change things by making it obsolete. That's my agenda here - to replace scientists with artists, to replace weakness with strength, to replace negativity with positivity, and to replace $50 price tags with $15 ones. If you want those things, I'm your hero. If you don't, I'm your worst nightmare. Simple as that...

I'm sure Xarn would enjoy this one:

The You Testament (2008)
The greatest story ever told becomes the greatest story ever EXPERIENCED! The You Testament takes you back to the time of Christ and allows you to witness his impact on society firsthand. Be the feet that follow him around ancient Palestine, the voice that tempts him in the wilderness, and the ears that hear his guidance. Then be the hand that betrays him, the mouth that denies him, and the eyes that see his death and resurrection. By the time the story has been told, it will be the most personal account ever documented - the Gospel according to YOU! Featuring a unique interpretation of events and scriptural references for further reading, the teachings of Christ have never been more relevant and accessible. Neither pious nor blasphemous, The You Testament is a thought-provoking challenge of what you thought you knew and an uplifting reminder of what will always be true...<sup>[1]
