"You will find comfort in the rhythm of the sea." –Charlotte Eriksson

Jay AKA TeaShore | xxviii | he/they/ze
solo game developer | neurodivergent | Computer Science BScCurrently making video games as a hobby, hoping one day to become a full-time developer (and open up my own game studio when the time comes, that has fair-pay and no crunch culture).

About

I'm a solo developer who's main goal is to create narrative-driven games in a myriad of genres, such as horror and mystery.
I have experience with a plethora of programming languages (JavaScript, Python, C++, etc.) from my BSc in Computer Science and want to use those skills more in game development, as I always had ideas for weird and bizarre stories that would fit in video game form.In my free time, I have a tendency to read classic literature, watch old movies or play indie video games, which all inspire my silly little stories.

  • If you want to translate a game I worked on, please don't forget to mention to which language you would like to translate it to.

  • For hiring, note if the project is commercial or not and what are you hiring for (artist, music composer, etc.) so I can say whether or not I can take on the job. (there's a limit on how many jobs I can take on at the same time, as I have a day job and a household to take care of)
