- Shadowlift: Zero Trace - 22 April 2026
Hey everyone! I’ve been working on something new for a while, and today I can finally share it:This is a completely new project, separate from Reflex Unit: Strike Ops. Break into procedurally generated locations, dodge cameras and patrols, steal everything you can carry, and escape before security takes you down. In this top-down stealth roguelite, every job is a risk. Get In. Get Out. Zero Trace. Reflex Unit: Strike Ops will still receive occasional updates and bug fixes, I’m not done supporting it! If you’re interested in what’s next:Check out the coming soon page aboveDrop a wishlist (it really helps 🙏)Let me know what you think! Thanks again for all your support! It means a lot.

- What is a Roll-a-Mech? - 18 September 2025
Reflex Unit: Strike Ops has just passed 1,000 downloads!To celebrate this milestone, I wanted to share a little behind-the-scenes look at one of the more unusual vehicles you’ll encounter later in the game: the Roll-a-Mech.Reflex Unit: Strike Ops is my first Steam release, though I’ve previously developed games for Mobile, Switch, and Meta Quest. One of my favorites to work on was a single and multiplayer Meta Quest VR mech game called Roll-a-Mech.The name came from the classic Unity tutorial Roll-a-Ball, which many Unity developers will recognize. My version reimagines that idea as a Tachikoma-inspired robot, with an open cockpit design so players can enjoy a full 360° view from inside.One of the Roll-a-Mech’s signature features is its legs: they can retract and raise, allowing the mech to roll forward at high speed!In Reflex Unit: Strike Ops (Stage 10 and in Versus Mode), you’ll get t…
