I I / I / I I / I — Project Signal demo
This is a narrative experience and the first thing I've ever made for SEGA MegaDrive/Genesis. I didn't know if what I wanted to do was technically possible or within my means.

Yesterday was the end of @gamemakersiceland.bsky.social Summer Game Jam 2025. I contributed art and animation to Ferry Fury, a game about ferrying a priest past a massive tidal wave.

Just released the first public demo for my game Dig-In
WW1 Colony sim / Strategy

Demo available for this week only!

This was a fun #gamedev interview. Icelandic studio #PorcelainFortress was running out of time and running out of cash... then they found a winning promo strategy that made their stumbling multiplayer game an international smash hit. @gamemakersiceland.bsky.social

My dayjob cut my workhours recently, so I'm looking for more art-related work. Hit me up if you're in the market for fun, colorful cartoons!

We're heading back to our friends at CCP Games for a Studio Visit this April! Please note that space is limited, and we need a headcount for snacks & drinks—so please register in advance!

Thanks to everyone who joined us last night! It was amazing to see so many new and familiar faces, share stories, and nerd out about game dev together. Can’t wait for the next one! 🎉

See you all tomorrow, Wednesday March 5th, for a casual game dev meetup at Le Kock! 🍻

We'll be there from 19:00-21:00.

If anyone's interested in what #gamedev is like in Iceland, here's a thread of my coverage!

First up, a story on the scene in general, with CCP (EVE Online), indie dev @joonturbo.bsky.social (NUTS, Phantom Spark), the @gamemakersiceland.bsky.social grassroots org, and ambitious startup Myrkur.

Thank you all for a brilliant event last night! Huge props again to the Ascension team for taking us behind the scenes on their journey from ideation to winning the 2024 holiday game jam! The talk was jam packed with insights and we hope it was an inspiration to aspiring jammers out there 🙌 🤩 👑

Five years ago @torfi.bsky.social and I published Out of the Loop.

The game's popularity has grown year by year (I think probably 10 million people have played it by now) and we have wanted to finally update it with more content.

Today we added four new categories to the game!

We're excited to announce the theme of this year's holiday-season Community Game Jam!

The theme is: Pólstjörnur (Pole stars).

We are so looking forward to seeing your various interpretations of the theme! 🌟

I’m putting together a starter pack for the Icelandic Game Scene 🇮🇸 📦 DM me if I somehow missed you! 🙌

Hey all! 👋 we are a grassroots community organization dedicated to growing a vibrant and diverse games scene in Iceland. We host meet-ups, game jams and more & we are so excited to be here on Bluesky! ☁️
