Hi! I'm Abe, a designer working on a narrative-driven sci-fi walking sim. Set in a future where public transportation is free, the game explores the tension between cutting-edge medical technology and human instincts.

You can use the autonomous vehicle for free, but you must continue to watch the ads displayed on the screen inside. However, by paying a monthly fee, you can enjoy the ride without any ads and have the freedom to spend your time as you wish.

I played 1000xRESIST, and at first, I was interested because it was labeled sci-fi. But it turned out to be a bold take on modern societal issues, presented in a completely fresh way. You don’t often come across a game that feels this full of passion from its creator.

This fictional world depicts a society where the poor are relegated to the outskirts and forced to endure ads during their commutes in self-driving cars—a cruel irony for those who can't afford anything anyway...

The circular city I designed for my sci-fi game.
I drew inspiration from roundabouts because I wanted to eliminate traffic lights for self-driving cars. In this city, work and entertainment are all centralized in one place.

In organ transplants, compatibility with the donor is crucial. However, in the future medical technology of brain transplants, a strange irony can occur when the genetic closeness is too high— the recipient may instinctively reject a part of their own body.

This is how it looks at night. If you’re curious, I’d be so happy if you added it to your Wishlist!

In a future where public transportation is free, people can only travel if they keep watching boring ads.

I wrote a blog post about what drives me to create video games. Like sci-fi novels, I’m exploring how video games can function as spaces for thought experiments—still very much a work in progress.

Designing Video Games as Experimental Spaces to Rethink Society’s Challenges
Video games are more than entertainment; they’re spaces where people can pause, think, and look at societal challenges from new angles.

The story is set in a near future where anyone can easily 3D print someone else’s face. The more famous you are, the more photos of your face are available online, making it easier to create precise replicas—and increasing the risk of misuse.

The man deliberately crashes into a self-driving car to cause an accident and tries to take a selfie of the scene to spread it on social media.

I'm not sure yet if this will be released as a game, but I've started a side project for a bit of a refresh!

This is a behind-the-scenes photo, but it’s not a horror game😅

It's a story set in a fictional world where you could transplant your brain into someone else's body. If you’re into narrative games, I’d really appreciate a repost!

Inside and outside the circular city.

Work and entertainment are all centralized in one place. Does that sound like a dystopia to you, or more like a utopia?
