I make games as an independent developer, usually functioning as the sole artist, designer, and programmer. What I love about game development is creating a set of systems that put the player in situations with interesting choices, along with a set of tools to emerge from those situations with a feeling of accomplishment.

One such game is Dungeon Hearts, which won a funding and publishing deal from Devolver Digital as part of their “Pitch Fork Parker” contest.

I was a backer of the original Oculus Rift Kickstarter, having been fascinated by VR as a kid. I use my game development and 3D art background to create immersive experiences with a focus on surreal environments that instill a sense of surprise and awe. My work has been featured on VRChat and the Museum of Other Realities. 

I started a project to create a 3D render every day for 365 days which is nearing completion. It’s been a pretty grueling process but it’s also pushed me to experiment with new techniques and tools. The need to come up with a new idea every day has also taught me to always keep my designer’s eye open for inspiration.
