Turn your art into a game!
20
Share your comic or concept art and your idea for a companion video game.
Direct collaboration with the artist who conceived the game idea is preferred.
We'll evaluate based on originality, gameplay potential, and positive message.
The first 30 minute consult is free and then we'll decide on a series of UNIT milestones.
If you wish to end after any completed UNIT we part friends and I provide you with the source files.
Progress is usually determined by the pace at which you supply the game ready art and the clarity of your direction.
I work closely with you to develop a playable prototype that stays true to your vision.
Once the prototype is complete, I can showcase your game at the GDevelop.io portal to reach a wider audience.

Training & Qualifications
Over the last two decades, I taught thousands of students how to put their own creative spin on classic games like Space Invaders, Asteroids, Pac-Man, and Mario. I became highly skilled at rapid prototyping, and my favorite teaching approach was to have students cast their screen to the projector and simply ask, "So, whatcha wanna do?!" From there, I would guide the entire class through their creative process, answering specific questions as they arose. This method proved to be highly effective—students learned exactly what they needed at the moment they were most engaged, and it stuck.
In recent years, I've especially enjoyed identifying and collaborating with talented digital artists in each class, helping them bring their personal game ideas to life.
