Bio:
Guy Davidson is the Coding Manager for Creative Assembly, responsible for the Total War series and more recently the critically acclaimed Alien:Isolation. His roles include recruiting, training and developing the programming corps, maintaining the platform layer library and debugging tools, and latterly porting the Total War franchise to OS X. He started writing games in 1980 and hasn’t found anything more interesting to do. He started using C++ in 1986 and hasn’t found a better language to use for game development. He joined Creative Assembly in 1999 and hasn’t heard of a better company to work for. He delivered a lightning talk at ACCU 2014 about game development and why it’s a proper job, and hasn’t properly recovered yet.
Guy enjoys jazz, tai chi and playing the piano as well as a curious variety of board games, card games and computer games.
