And I make board games for a hobby!
All my board games are self-published through the Game Crafter, a print-on-demand webshop. The games on there are a bit more expensive than the games you'll find in your local game shop; that's because I'm not holding stock of my games! Whenever you order a game, it gets printed on the spot (on demand! hence the name), and sent directly to you. If you like what you see on this site, consider following me on my socials or buying one of my games. The more demand there is, the more feasible it becomes to make actual print-runs of my games. And that will make them significantly cheaper!
Again, I'm a hobbyist. I'm only charging money for my games because of the high production costs, I'm not actually earning anything from it. All my games are passion projects; my main goal is to get as many people to play them as possible!
I'm a back-end software developer by trade (that means I program stuff). In my free time I like to make art and hunt for speciality coffees. I used to be into anime and manga as well, but haven't really found the time to catch up with the new seasonal releases of the past years. I also, of course, play a lot of board games! I really like solo and co-operative games, especially deck-builders, engine-builders, anything-builders -- I very much enjoy it if a game has many moving parts. There is a certain sense of exploration to finding new combinations and synergies while playing a game. You'll find a lot of these mechanics back in the games I've made. Take a look at them!
