Sneak peek at The Variable Valley and The Last Poem
Whiteboxing is underway and concept art is rolling in. These worlds are starting to take shape.

I'm so proud of my team

A first look at The Last Poem, a gothic action-adventure reimagined from our 2022 release. Inspired by Edgar Allan Poe. Infused with Norse myth. Memories are weapons. Poetry restores life. From the team behind The Variable Valley.

Sneak peek at The Variable Valley, a third person, Myst-inspired 3D puzzle adventure powered by ancient logic and expressive math. No lectures. No pop-ups. Just immersive puzzles, and a story that teaches through play. #TheVariableValley #indiedev #gamedev #Unity3D #puzzlegames #edtech

Open for summer work, remote or daytime only (dad duty at night while my wife works)

If you need help with game design or level design, curriculum or course development (k12 or college), or game consulting

Happy to chat or collab!

It's hard to find the free time sometimes with teaching, creating tutorials and working on The Archives collection and family on top of all that, but I had the opportunity to join the Pompous Trash Jam and worked with @maximillustrate.bsky.social on Baron Von Gunk's Filthy Finery. Go check it out! 😁
Check out Baron Von Gunk’s Filthy Finery, a game by @adaptedlabs.bsky.social that I designed the character and enemy sprites for. We collaborated on this project for the Pompous Trash game jam hosted by @societyofplay.bsky.social
Go on and give it a try!

It still needs some art work and a lot of programming needs but this was the best use of 12+ hours 😅

I'm so excited to get the hard part done. 😁

Thank you @crunchlabs.bsky.social for making the amazing products you do! My daughter was over the moon when she got her first box for Christmas Day. Mark Rober, if you're ever in Dallas it would be an honor to have you speak to our design and engineering classes!

Some WIP drawings from one of our concept artists. One of the male player (there will be some customization available) she'll be working on the female character once completed. The other is a quick sketch for our storyboards we're getting together for one of our pitch meetings!
