My art

Regularly updated with new sketches and finished art.

The Avatar

The world seems to be ending and nobody except a paranoid murder suspect has noticed.

Porridge Cooling Darkly

Caesar's hat bends reality. Shadows stretch when it's pulled low. He wears it over his laurel wreath.

Or did, before an insane, dimension-hopping submarine captain stole it.

Untitled Shmup

A basic vertical shooter project undertaken as a crash course in ActionScript 3 development and modular design.

Most of the game elements can be edited and extended without touching the code.

Windmills

Windmills is a tactical morality puzzle in which you command starships at arm's reach and every decision you make is ruining someone's day.

Transcend

Hounded by an obsessed starship captain, a disavowed special operations cell scrambles to unravel an impossible and alien mystery before it destroys everything they know.

Sync

Three oblivious mercenary pilots are exploited by their employer and sent hurtling through time.

But the device responsible is beyond anyone's control, and soon the lost pilots suspect there is another manipulator at work.
