How It Started

I started out making games in RPG Maker and GameMaker back when I was a teenager. It took a couple of decades, but I eventually learned to program in C and began making games for the Game Boy.

Other Games / Projects

Outside of indie game dev, I’ve worked as an animation lead on Paw Patrol and contributed to three feature films with Sony Pictures Imageworks.

Fun Fact

Every Game Boy game I make has one big constraint: it has to fit into 32 kilobytes or less. That challenge keeps things interesting!

The Idea

Why I Made This Game

I wanted to create something lean and focused – with a clear design hook – to teach myself Game Boy development.

What Makes This Game Special

I’ve always loved games that let you get comfortable, and then slowly ramp up until you're just barely keeping up. That rising suspense is so much fun – and I really feel like I captured that feeling here.

You'll Love This If...

You're a puzzle game fan, skill mastery seeker, or a player who enjoys mobile-style games with tight mechanics and replayability.

Inspiration / Influences

Tetris, Panel de Pon, Tetris Attack, Puzzle League – those kinds of mechanically satisfying, endlessly playable puzzlers.

Favorite Feature

Trying to unlock all the achievements as fast as possible is a constant challenge. It keeps things replayable and gives you that “just one more run” feeling.

    My new favorite puzzle game.

    I bought this game to collect the unique cartridge color and charm. Little did I know I would get addicted to this game as soon as I started it up. It is now my go to as a time killer. It is easy to pick up and play. The music and graphics are nice too. I love the retro feel to the game even though it is new. I would recommend picking this game up.

    Tetris for the sea

    Even more fast paced than playing with blocks. It’s the Tetris of the sea.

    Average puzzler

    Its a well programmed game, but a bit too easy and not packed with content. My 10 year old daughter loved it, but had cleared it within a half hour. There is replay-ability, but only so much.
