Manifesto

How I make games.

  1. I make games for Telegram. They open from any chat and play with friends.
  2. I ship fast and often. A game today beats a perfect one next year.
  3. No “invite five friends to continue”. Friends are for playing.
  4. Fair odds: what you see is what the server rolls. Where code hasn’t proven it yet, I say so.
  5. The studio is me. I answer for every game personally.

What I’m making right now.

Testing

Pufiki: guide tours

Every section explains itself with a short tour that ends in a clear action.

In progress

Batobu: art in waves

NPC portraits in dialogues, home icons and effect atlases.

Testing

Syndicate: server under load

Arena battles got lighter on the server, and the backend runs as a cluster.
