Hiya! My name is Ryan from ‘straya 🇦🇺! I’m a game designer and programmer. My portfolio is in my bio.
I’m still trying to find my place in this industry, so I hope in the meantime we can connect and chat :)!

Glad to be announcing a new game, and happy that it is something experimental and weird: a tiny, tense, turn-based strategy game about merging units into spectacular combinations, and then watching them evaporate thousands of bugs.

Sleeping in my hotel room and honestly feel so emotional at the moment. I know the scholarship has barely started, but after feeling rejected so much from the games industry, meeting European friends via the scholarship who treat me like one of their own and as a true friend is….an amazing feeling.
