I occasionally work on small games. They can be found on itch.io
Visual DOS: Integer Overflow
You are a private investigator in debt. A group of people have showed up at your door with a large cash deposit, and a request that you find their missing loved ones: local employees of the international tech corporation Visual Corp., makers of Visual DOS and other critical programs the world relies on. The police have ignored them, and they promise a large payday on just finding information on their whereabouts.
- Over 10,000 words of narrative and lore, inter-office emails that add to the alternate universe of Visual DOS 2024.
Written in Narrat for the Queer Halloween Stories Bundle 2024.
I had planned to join the Game Jam for this bundle, and remembered half-way through the submission period. I had two weeks to learn Narrat, write the story and create the art for the game. The art is a combination of vector images and VRoid models.
The game is a narrative game that includes cryptogram puzzles for a "hacking style" mechanic.
Desktop Kittens
The purrfect way to kill time, or a distraction from 202X. Drop some kittens on your desktop and watch them frantically run about, or lazily lie down. They’ll prance around your desktop, examine your windows and the things that cats do.

In an alternate reality, DOS development continues. For it's 2024 release, it's getting LLM/AI functionality baked in, but something seems off about this new feature.

A throwback and parody of the game installers of the DOS era. It's a puzzle game, where you need to find your computer's randomly generated hardware configuration to play a game, DirectXSucks. It features several endings depending on how long it takes to complete.
