My Games

I started making computer games in 2004. Back then, the indie game movement hadn't become a thing yet -- we were just hobbyists making "freeware" or "shareware".

Also, there weren't many tools for game development, so I was happy when I came across the BlitzBasic programming language, which was much easier to use than something like C++.

For a brief time, I used my own language called Snax, which compiled to Flash. Nowadays, I mostly use JavaScript.

Nearly all of the games on this list began as entries to game jams like Ludum Dare. I find that game jams are a great way to focus and avoid the analysis paralysis I get when working on a larger project, so I continue to do them to this day.

Thankware

All of my games are free. Likes and views are nice, but I care more about the humans on the other side of the screen who enjoy what I've made.

So if you like any of these games, please send me a short comment on social media or email. =)
