As Development Director of TheGameCreators, I make our great projects happen!TheGameCreators design and produce affordable and ‘easy to use’ software development products. Our key products are Driving Test Success 4in1 Kit, VR Quest, AppGameKit, GameGuru and EduGuru. As developers of the 'Driving Theory Test 4in1 Kit', the UK's #1 app, we were delighted when our 'Driving Theory Test 4in1 Kit' was again named this year as Apple’s TOP (yes......TOP!) paid-for iPhone app of 2020 :-)Driving Test Success has already helped over 14m users in the UK pass their Theory Test and it has a 4.8 approval rating on both iOS and Android, with over 100,000 reviews.Our most recent development product is VR Quest - a home and school-based learning platform, where students can recreate historic places and events and step into them in Virtual Reality. VR Quest is aligned to the American education curriculum from 4th grade through to 12th grade (ages 9-18) and covers Math, Science, English and Social Studies.GameGuru is a long-established game-creation tool for PCs. It's easy to use and means anyone can create, share and sell their game. We are working now on the next iteration: GameGuru MAX! Taking learnings from years of game-makers feedback, we are crafting GameGuru MAX to deliver the tools needed to quickly create games with no coding or modelling required. GameGuru MAX with faster performance and incredible new visuals – exciting times!AppGameKit is an easy-to-learn game development engine used to create games and apps, ideal for Beginners, Hobbyists & Indie developers.In 2019 we launched AppGameKit Studio, a new game development user interface with an all-in-one work space, that allows you to drag & drop assets to visualise your scenes, easily browse app media assets, run live debugging sessions (and lots more!).EduGuru is a series of educational apps for 3-5 year olds that support the UK national curriculum for Early Years learning, allowing toddlers to learn while they play.
