About Team Defiant

Hello, I'm Mobiius, AKA Philip Lewis and I created TeamDefiant.co.uk

I'm a freelance video game programmer, wannabe drifter, and in my spare time, I work full time for Hewlett Packard as a 'Technical Solutions Representative, Level 2' whatever the Hell that means!

Programming:

I've been programming in obscure programming languages such as bbc basic, qbasic, visual basic 6, C and C++ since high school. I've even dabbled in Java and COBOL in my time, although it didn't quite stick in my fast moving brain for long!

During my spell at Uni, I picked up The Game Creators, Dark Basic Classic and started using that. I loved it, and when they released a new version of it, Dark Basic Professional, i jumped on that like a fat lass on junk food! It's now my language of choice for windows based 3d games. I also program in another of The Game Creators' languages, the App Game Kit for all my cross platform mobile gaming needs.

I've written a few published games for the following groups/organisations, as well as for myself. Click the links to see my work!

Cars:

Ever since I was at University, I've loved fast cars. I don't know why, I just do. Probably as a result of the movie, The fast and the furious which came out around the same time. I started playing Need For Speed: Underground 2 (The best underground street racing game EVER!!!!) and vowed that one day, I'd drive a modified japanese car. Pretty much 10 years later, I finally got off my fat arse and passed my test!

My first, and favourite car is my Mazda 323f. Originally intended to become a 'street racer' with upgraded power, handling and a bootfull of ICE. I've since changed directions with it and decided not to go down the Jeremy Clarkson POWAH!!!! route, instead to build a decent track car, but still keeping the bootfull of ICE!

My 'race car' will be covered by the next car I intend to buy. A 1st generation Mazda MX5. I plan to strip it of everything that isn't needed to pass an MOT or to drive, slam it on some wide ass 3 spoke Super Advans, fit a rivet-on overfender kit and drift the hell outta it! Over time, I'll fit a BBR turbo conversion and hike the power up as far as I can afford!
