Hey I'm Joe, the founder & lead dev!
Growing up immersed in household classics like Super Mario 64, Earthworm Jim & Zelda, gaming has always been a passion of mine! As a kid I always had ideas for making my own games. WIth a little determination (and brute force) I started creating levels in games such as timesplitters and later on my own mods in Elder Scrolls!
In 2018 I decided to *officially* begin learning how to code and began messing around in Unity - first creating small 'endless running' style demos and later advancing to complex parallax-filled 2D challenge adventures.
Enter Wheeze! - my very first game inspired by so many 2D classics from the 90s era . I can't wait to share this game and my love of retro games with everyone!
In addition to game dev, I'm also a death metal drummer & true professional player (aka getting destroyed constantly in) Talisman
