I’m Michael Allar, the awesome programmer who will solve all of your needs.

Being raised in the lower social economic class, I have developed a true sense of what is practical; and therefore try to be as impractical as possible. Given any task, I will accomplish it, but most likely in a way you would never expect. Sometimes I breed innovation, other times, simply unseen faster ways to do things. Sure, the means will generally be very messy and covered in the blood of one of every animal, but my end results are always solid and professional works.

Graduate of Fullerton High School, Class of ‘08, I am currently a student at The Art Institute of Orange County, located in Santa Ana, and is possibly the least cost effective Visual Game Programming private school ever built. As of this writing, I am completing my 8th quarter and my programming classes have taught me the sum total of nothing in which my past programming experience has not already taught me. Hopefully this will change, but in the mean time I am working on various side programming projects to keep my head spinning as I continue schooling.

Here you will find my experiments, struggles, rantings, successes and failures in regards to my programming projects. I am mainly focusing on working with the Unreal Engine lately, taking a break from my standard C# and my C++ projects. As I advance my knowledge with scripting for the Unreal Engine (more specifically UDK), you will see video tutorials I will be posting under the page entitled UDK Tutorials linked at the top of every page.

As a student, my code may or may not be the most efficient, suitable, practical, etc… But if you stumble upon methods that I use that are well-written/horribly done, please comment and criticize my work so that I may learn from it.
