Hello Everyone!

Hello members, I am glad to be onboard and be part of the Team- BHP community.

I am Vijay Srinivasan, from Chennai and I am a gaming Entrepreneur. I run a gaming studio called Hammerplay Studios based in Chennai and yes I make and play games for a living. I am married and have a 5 year old son who equally likes and appreciates cars at this age. My wife is Senior Software Engineer at a leading firm and has also grown to like cars and travel along with me. I am very passionate about games, Hi-Fi audio, cars, aircrafts and travel.

Previously I owned a Maruti Ritz that served me well and then I moved to a Civic that I really enjoyed. I was then looking to buy a car that I wanted to keep for a long time and after much research, bought a V40 Cross Country that has been a great ride and companion on long drives.

I look forward to some great interactions with you members.

Thanks,

Vijay

Re: Hello Everyone!

Hey, welcome to TBHP. You're living every child's dream. The Volvo V40 is one of my favorite station wagons. Do post an ownership post about it.
Have fun!

Hi Welcome,
You certainly will find lots of information on all of your passions on the forum. Looking forward to your contribution.

I would love to hear some more about how games get developed.

Re: Hello Everyone!

I assume, not many look forward to Monday mornings, you are an exception I think .

Apart from photography, your other interests have a lot in common with most if not all BHPians.

Welcome aboard and have a fun stay, see you around.

Wow, thats awesome man! I have at some point in time wanted to be a part of a game development, and to that extent I had even done some courses during my engineering (non programming ofcouse, more towards rewards, gamification etc.). These days, I test games for small independent developers as a token for their hard work in this tough market.

From Ritz, to Civic and the V40! Thats an interesting journey and I would definitely like to know more about it. Do share an ownership thread of the car. Before you begin, do take a look at the forum rules once.

Cheers!

Thanks, Sheel. I got to admit Monday mornings are the best especially when we are building something cool. I won't deny the anxiety to get back to the saddle but it can be the opposite too at times

Great to be here with the community and share/learn stuff on a lot of different areas.

Absolutely, I am looking to write up that journey and more specifically write an ownership review on the V40. I will definitely post that soon.

Re: Hello Everyone!

Welcome to the forum Vijay! Volvo V40 is a fantastic car. Regarding developing games, that is a dream of many from our generation and glad to see that you are living it. It will be interesting to have a separate thread on that if you can spare some time.

Thanks, BlackPearl, I have certainly been enjoying the car. I will try and open up a separate thread on game development soon.
