In my copious free time I like to program videogames in [Rust] using the bevy engine.
In general my projects can be found on itch.io:
- personal itch.io: popgame.itch.io
- collaborations with Sam Hall: liquidmirror.itch.io

After failing for more than a year to make progess on an original game idea, I brought the idea of implementing Martian Chess to Sam. The idea being the game design was "done" and the value we were adding was appealing visuals and music. Sam agreed and we spent a few months making on our first finished game: Martian Chess. We contacted the publishers of the original board game and let them know of the project; they agreed to let us develop the game with the caveat that we not make money from it.

For a house art show I put together this very rudimentary single-player version of Set! and setup a laptop in the corner for people to play. Every single introvert played a few rounds and gave me some great feedback.

Around June of 2025 I decided to focus on making many small games by copying existing ideas and adding a fun twist. Flappy Bird came to mind as a simple game to start with, and because I was playing Braid, Anniversery Edition the idea of using rewind in some way came about naturally. I was especially interested because rewind seemed easy to implement given the limited mechanics and I was genuinely curious if it would make the game more or less fun.
