Slid3rs

A Crow Named Basil

Little Bo Reap

Slid3rs is a fun and addictive puzzle game! I’ve taken the familiar cube and added some matching game flair to it. You don’t have to be an expert cuber to solve these puzzles. Just rotate the cube and let gravity help you match the colors to remove the rows and win.

Little Bo Reap

A Crow Named Basil

Little Bo Reap

Little Bo Peep's sleepiness has led to all of her sheep being killed! Take revenge using powers of necromancy to summon undead flocks of sheep to defeat your foes. Each different flock can assist in your movement or your battles to defeat your foes in an untold number of ways!

A Crow Named Basil

A Crow Named Basil

Rootin' Tootin' Cowboy Shootin'

A Crow Named Basil is a thought-provoking narrative based quest game that I worked on for my senior capstone game. The gameplay is based around collecting ingredients and making potions in order to unravel Basil's internal identity struggle.

Rootin' Tootin' Cowboy Shootin'

Rootin’ Tootin' Cowboy Shootin' is a game where you have to defend your town from waves of bandits by using your cowboy's unique abilities to give you an edge.

Out of Space

Rootin' Tootin' Cowboy Shootin'

Kickback Chrome

Out of Space is a two-player game created for a 48-hour game jam. The game is played by driving one of two tanks on opposite sides of a field blocked by a wall in the center. The players must pick up balls and shoot a moving target to fill up the other person's play area. First to run out of space on their side loses. 

Kickback Chrome

Rootin' Tootin' Cowboy Shootin'

Kickback Chrome

Kickback Chrome is a short action side scroller game made for the GMTK 2019 Game Jam in only 48 hours. In the game your gun gets charged over time providing a kickback, with stronger shots sending you further backwards. Players must use the kickback to avoid obstacles and successfully navigate the level.
