In Harmony as Programming Lead

Explore your past memories recorded on cassettes, and collect the notes of forgotten melodies as you advance through the world of “In Harmony,” a grid-based puzzle game with musically inspired elements. Intuit your way through satisfying puzzles as you put yourself into the shoes of a single mother. Uncover a rich, bittersweet story of the mother, her son, and the high and low notes of their relationship.

Beyond the Marion as UI and Systems Programmer

You approach the edge of reality. There’s no telling what’s out there. If anything exists at all. Explore space in the Polaris Mk 0, a ship straight from the 70’s, and meet your companions as the ship’s commanding officer. Take charge and repair your damaged ship, learn from your alien crewmates, and discover the true nature of what lies beyond existence… before you do it all over again.
