job
Game Designer
ActewAGL.
December 2017 - Current
In December 2017 I pitched a new miniatures gaming concept to Sally 4th, an emerging player in the tabletop gaming industry. Since then I have been collaborating with them on development of the miniatures, rules and associated source and story material.
I've written two 100 page books for use with the game, while contributing to the rulebook and liaising with the copyright owner to develop artwork and ensure consistency with his canon.
Working in my spare time, I've led design decisions and done some limited 3D modelling. Miniatures are now in production and the Kickstarter for the basic game funded successfully in 13 hours, before going on to achieve 312% funding.
