Oh hi. I'm Howard
I've spent my career helping teams build games - from leading QA on casual downloadable titles to producing large-scale live service games played around the world by millions.
Throughout that time, I've worked with engineers, artists, designers, product managers, data analysts, marketing, project managers, QA, and executives to solve one simple problem:
How do we make great games together?
Now I'm building my own studio while helping other developers solve production challenges, improve workflows, and bring ambitious creativity to life.
After years of playing and making games, I've come to believe that the best games are built around three simple ideas:
Games with Heart and Soul
Heart and soul can't be manufactured. They don't come from bigger budgets, tighter deadlines, or a checklist of features. They come from creators who genuinely love games and understand why players make them a part of their lives.
I believe the most memorable games aren't remembered because they had the biggest worlds or the flashiest graphics. They're remembered because they made us laugh, challenged us, surprised us, comforted us, made us cry, inspired us, or gave us stories we carried for years.
Those are the experiences I strive to create - games built with passion and a genuine respect for the people who play them.
Games I would play
Instead of chasing "What's been proven and profitable?", I ask myself a different question:
What game would my younger self have dreamed of playing?
Those are the ideas worth chasing. Like a book you just can’t put down, a movie you can watch every week, or the toy you kept displayed on your shelf well after you’ve finished playing with it - I make games you'll happily return to because of how they made you feel.
Games That Make Life Better
I believe games can be more than entertainment. They can inspire curiosity, encourage healthy habits, strengthen relationships, and leave players with something positive they can carry into everyday life. Games should enrich your life, not replace it.
I don't want to make games people struggle to quit. I want to make games people never want to forget.
