I'm Ethan, a game developer from the Midwest, making games since I was 9. I completed and published my first game on itch.io when I was 17, and I am currently working on a Tower Defense FPS Milksoup, which is now on Steam for wishlisting. I have a strong talent for picking up new skills and combining them to create something unique, which means there's plenty of variety to discover in my backlogs.

Hello, my name is Spencer! I've been in the gaming landscape ever since I was a child where I played every adventure game I could find on the PS1. Eventually this led me to my favourite series of all time, Kingdom Hearts. The characters, the worlds and the gameplay have inspired me to this day. So much so I went to university for Computer Science. During my degree I taught myself to work with Unity and the rest is history.

My name is Carlos! with roots deep in the digital landscapes of video games, a journey that began when I was just four years old. My initiation into the world of gaming was through the iconic Nintendo 64, but it was Little Big Adventure 2 on the PC that truly sparked my imagination, setting the stage for a life intertwined with virtual worlds. As I grew, games like Halo and Grand Theft Auto captivated me, not just for their gameplay but for the mysteries they hinted at. These discoveries ignited a curiosity about what lay behind the screen, the code, and the models that brought these worlds to life.
