Unannounced Independent Game Creator / Owner |
AAA production is fundamentally the work of a team while a portfolio focuses on one person, so here I have also included some peeks at work I created independently. As such I was responsible for everything from design and mechanics to UI, materials, modelling, audio, scripting, etc. |

 The Fisher Orrery8-movement mechanical planetarium brass, wood This real-world working clockwork model of the solar system was designed and developed entirely by me, from mathematics to mechanics to manufacture & supply chain. I also experimented with software and manufacturing techniques to allow production costs to undercut comparable products while attaining a striking presentation. |
