Biography

I came to the University of Michigan in 1996 for a computer engineering degree. I heard about WSoft in 1999, and decided to join. The group was small back then, and they were talking about "Crisis Wolverine" which I am glad they finally finished :). The major project I have been working on with wsoft is scorched earth 3D, which was later renamed to Burnt Planet for copyright reasons.

I graduated in 2001 and went back to my home country Kuwait. I have a boring day job in some government organization, which is mainly about databases. I wanted more so I teamed up with a colleague to create a small company called Dot Design. We mainly do artistics websites rather than corporate informational ones, and occasionally we do games for mobile phones.
