Hello! I'm a developer who enjoys creating games and immersive atmospheres, and I document my creative process.

I love atmospheric horror game environments, and I really love how Scott Cawthon approaches horror video games, especially with respect to Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location and Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator.

I enjoy Dani's YouTube-centric, goofy, game development documentary style, which emphasizes the story (and absurdity) of his video game creations rather than the exact technicalities of his game dev process. Great examples of this are He said I Couldn't Make a Multiplayer Survival Game... So I Made One! and They Said I Couldn't Make an Online Multiplayer Game... So I Made One!

I love Markiplier's approach to balancing confidence, humility, self-interest, and charity. I think his perspective and understanding of what it means to be human is really inspiring. Watch Markiplier's "Pain" and Watch This Video When You’re Feeling Down.

Hello! If you're seeing this, you get an early look at the PNG Mall Demo!

The first version of the PNG Mall demo is now up on Steam to playtest! It is available on the game's store page here:
store.steampowered.com/app/2635950/PNG_Mall/

I am working on the demo for the Steam Next Fest on October 14th. If you could give the demo a test and report any bugs/points of confusion down below in this community post, I would be very grateful!

Also for those wondering, there will be a new video soon. I'm still alive, I've just been focusing on game dev more than YouTube. : )

If you enjoyed Nextbot Graveyard, I could use your help getting feedback on some stuff I've been working on! Playtesters from Version 0 were very helpful (thank you!), and I have some new content I'd like thoroughly tested and I want your recommendations and ideas!
