James Simpson has been dreaming of writing games since he first touched his Atari 400. He began his career in gaming by studying C/C++ programming as part of B.S. in computer information systems at DeVry Institute of Technology.

James followed this up by teaching himself a variety of 3D art tools, and is currently pursuing a B.A. in Game Art and Design at The Art Institute of Atlanta. As part of this he has been working with Autodesk's Maya and 3dsMax programs and a variety of engines such as Unreal 2004 and Unreal 3.

His first published game with WildTangent was called "Invasion: The Last Stand", followed up by a series of contract projects with various gaming studios such as Cartoon Network.

At the moment he owns the game company 'Cellbloc Studios', contracting to create various casual games.
