Hi, I’m Alex (obviously, it says so up top, so it must be true) a game designer and writer. I studied Creative Writing & Game Design at Brunel University. I’ve been designing games for a few years now and writing for much longer.

I’ve always loved narrative games, though I am quite partial to getting salty when people are better than me at competitive shooters. Writing stories with characters more complex and interesting than myself is far more appealing to me than dealing with the real world. Which is probably why I spend an inordinate amount of time building worlds for and running TTRPGs.Anyway, have a look around, or don’t. That’s cool too.

An adventure/puzzle game with a thoughtful and bittersweet story about a friendly android looking for their creator and the value of their life. We designed and developed the game in just three months as part of the UK Government programme Tranzfuser.

Songwood is a beautiful adventure game inspired by classic Finnish folklore. Weaving poetry and music, the game tells the tale of a magical woodland spirit and their quest to restore the mystical forest.
As writer and designer at Octopus 8 Studios, Songwood was developed in just one summer.
