• New Game Reveal: Arithmetic Violence in ZERO SUM - 1 April 2026

  I’ve been working on something a little... different.I wanted to create a game that felt like the covers of my old school folders. Messy, hand-drawn stuff filled with the kind of math problems that used to give me nightmares. The result is ZERO SUM.It’s a roguelite twin-stick shooter where every shot is a calculation. You carry Operators (Plus, Minus, Modulo, Sigma and more) instead of guns, and every enemy is a literal number trying to overwhelm you with its value.It’s a "scratchy-pencil" roguelite where there are no health bars, only raw arithmetic violence. You’ll fight through different kinds of notebook sketches, using a mathematical arsenal to survive.From the Euler Owl to the Prime Sieve Spider, the bosses are designed around a mathematical concept. I hope you’ll love the mental-math-chaos of this one.Head over and hit the Wishlist button to support the development!

• Sneak Peek - 6 November 2024

  I’ll be rolling out an update for Pancake Patrol soon, though I still need a bit more time to polish up a few details. Right now, I’m preparing an extra playable character and working on a major update, which will bring in a new game mode and more gameplay features. This update will lay the groundwork for these bigger additions. Both of these will be released as free DLC. Personally, I’m not a fan of paid DLC, but by releasing them as free DLC, it’ll be clear that this is bonus content. Especially since the new playable character is totally unbalanced and really just for fun
