I make video games, maybe with you?
Recyclic
Storytelling Through the Mundane
When I was deciding on a game concept to see to completion, I looked at one of my favourite indie games of all time: Papers, Please. I found the real attraction of the game was what I would call "Storytelling Through the Mundane"
So I began making Recyclic. The player is a lowly factory worker who sorts recycling, trying to make ends meet while keeping up with new regulations and shifting political, social, and economic climates.
Shellscrape
Scope Creep!
A top-down wargame project I started during university, as with many new devs, scope creep hit hard, and I could not bring this game to completion. (Perhaps the concept will be revisited one day)
Despite this, the process was an irreplaceable experience. I implemented systems and mechanics like pathfinding, procedural generation, Line-of-Sight, etc. I also had a lot of fun learning pixel art and making tileable game assets.

Ideas are cheap so I’m sharing mine
A slice of my plans for a project after Recyclic. This shows a bit of my creative process of formalising ideas.
Always looking for collaborators with creative visions!
