Overview: Invaders Reloaded is a remake of the classic Space Invaders format that uses the NeuroSky Mindkit Hardware to enable players to control their ship's weapons using the power of their mind. Invaders is the first game to use the Neurosky to control gameplay, and is commercially available on the Neurosky store. 

It was my job to develop exciting gameplay that integrated the new technology in an innovative way. As the hardware had never been used for games before, I also oversaw the development of a number of DLLs and software tools to connect, calibrate and read the user's brainwaves from the headset. Project management involved managing a team of artists, programmers and testers across a 6 month development phase as well as organising PR, and showcasing the game and headset at SXSW, Ogilvy Digital Souk, Gadget Show Live 2010 and a number of other promotion events.
