✨ Incredibly proud to announce the founding of Special Character ✨ I've been building a team, and working on a new game in secret. We didn't have a name for the studio yet, until now! Can't wait to show you all what we've been working on. It's going to be really exciting. 😊

Hi everyone! It’s great to see so many old and new friends here. Never have I been very active on social media, but I’m eager to change that in the coming months. I’ll be sharing some personal design practices, theories, and the (hard-learned) lessons I’ve picked up throughout my career. Stay tuned!
