I'm thrilled to report that the villian Sylas Shadowblade (aka @spudonkey.bsky.social ) has been dethroned! Long live Jarek Starstrike 👑💀

Playtopia is happening this weekend in Cape Town, South Africa and if you ever have the chance to go I couldn't recommend it more! Like AMAZE, its one of those events that reminds you why you make games. Back in 2018 we created Guitar Wizards for the first one and I'm still immensely proud of it!

Hi, I'm Ben. I'm a game dev from South Africa. I love tinkering with alternative controllers, having too many game ideas, and occasionally even releasing games!
