Worked in Frostbite for nearly a decade with BioWare & EA. I went hard for simplicity with more control after that with GameMaker. Enjoying it so far. #indiegamedev #solodev #GameMaker #Frostbite

I hit road blocks in spoken-interviews. But rather than see my #autism & #adhd as roadblocks I changed the rules of the game, I instead focused on opportunities that would allow me to do contract or temp work in front of the people that would hire me. #interviews #gameindustry #indiegamedev PT 1

Recently this #gameindustry has been obscenely difficult for devs. Whether you're a dev, recent game dev school grad or just learning on your own, your effort, your learning, it's NO small thing. #indiegamedev #solodev #gamedevschool #aseprite
Would love to see what you're working on!

Sometimes indie game dev especially #solodev can get really daunting by oneself. With my ADHD it's been helpful to work with a #bodydouble around me to keep focus. If you need the same I'm here for it.
Would love to see what you're working one. Catch me weekdays.
