Hi, I'm a cross platform game developer who enjoys wasting his time on many bizarre projects, many of which people seem to oddly enjoy.

I usually am on a Macbook Pro, so I prefer Mac games to play. But I can always get to a Windows box if necessary.

My current projects are
  • Novarunner, a 3D space sim/RPG oriented around trading, and an attempt to modernize the capitalist ideals of Elite with new game design theory.
  • Propane Injector, a cross platform game API and tool suite designed for simplified 2D and 3D game development.
  • Stick Soldiers III, the sequel to the popular 2D shooter series offering Internet-based multiplayer.

Notable former projects include:
  • Glow, a dystopian sci-fi Roguelike with plenty of automatic firepower and a simple, flexible RPG system.

Check out my website for many of my former games, some of which I am not a huge fan of, but which I have preserved for posterity's sake.

I develop the kind of games I would enjoy; complicated, visceral games with tactics that the best players can use, yet simple enough for the average person to pick up and play. They also have tons of secrets for the observant explorer to locate.
