The wheels are coming off


Hello. As a kid a dreamed of making videogames, as I’m sure many of you did. As a young man, that seemed far less likely, as the industry for me didn’t have any clear entryways that didn’t involve having already made games. But about five years ago, I picked up Yoyo Gamemaker, and have been experimenting with it.

I made a Smallville parody NES game. Remember Smallville?

It wasn’t very good. I continued to try and make games, especially fighting games and Smash Bros type games. Those where a little above my capacity, so for about 4 years I didn’t make any one game, just pieces of fighting games.

It wasn’t until last year, with the advent of gamejame hosting sites such as this one and itch.Io that I’ve begun experimenting with smaller, more makeable games. I made Blue Swan and Monsters of the King for it’s gamejams and finally got my mojo.

This year I plan to be agressive about it and release on Gamejolt several quick games, and to continue working on several of my own projects. I might even need a partner in crime or somesuch! So it’s good to be here and hopefully release some games.
