Sometimes I just toy with layout or form-factor for free games by others. The mechanics I tinker with are currently inspired by John Harper and Shawn Tomkin, among others. Hi! I mostly make small, quick games (between 200-500 words) with an emphasis on simple rules and imaginative storytelling between the lines.
