I've been working on Luma Island for a few months now so I decided to make a little showreel of some of the stuff I've had the pleasure of working on so far.

What do you think, is it cosy enough for your tastes?

❓What's your favourite vehicle-based game❓

Mine's currently the Island Flyover minigame in Wii Sports Resort. This (and the rest of Wii Sports Resort for that matter) still slapps.

One of my favourite quotes atm is:

“It’s not just good… it’s good enough!”

Definitely keen to see more like this on projects, especially smaller developments!

Also bonus points if you allow the player to manually scroll through the credits as well as being able to access them from the main menu.

I just wanna see who worked on your game and what they did 😤
We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

I was working in a burrito shop and served some game developers who told me that i was living in the “Hollywood of games.” I then saved up some money, networked like crazy and finally took a leap of faith and started freelancing as a game developer
What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

A bit late to the party but finally started #SplitFiction with my partner and its tonnes of fun straight out the gate!

Omochapon is a #NoCode #SoloDev game that I released on the Switch. A major milestone for me as an #IndieDev and a stepping stone for my next titles!

Would appreciate follows if you're interesting in my next game or how I work! 🙏🙏🙏

Currently batting away the urge to spend all my hard earned cash on Black Friday deals that i had no prior desire to buy…

Remember to spend responsibly this season folks - you're not saving money if you weren't going to buy it in the first place! 💸

✨ This is a gentle reminder to tell creatives you whose work you enjoy that you love their work! You'd be surprised how many people will say they don't hear it much at all. ✨

For a fraction of the cost, I can make placeholders for you that are guaranteed to slip through to final build and far beyond.

This shit is exactly why placeholders are commonly pink/black checkerboxes with PLACEHOLDER in giant text on it so that shit doesn't get missed and go to fucking retail
