Salt All The Things
Two friends, two decades of WoW, and zero filter — the good, the bad, and the salty.
A World of Warcraft podcast premiering March 3, 2026. Two longtime players with nothing to prove and everything to say — covering current content, hot takes, and the kind of conversations that only happen after 20 years in Azeroth.
Built on a custom show planning system for episode organization, topic tracking, and guest coordination. Launching on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and Amazon Music.

Threads
Explore a patient's mindscape across therapy sessions where the world changes as trust deepens.

The Tome
Your map is alive, it has its own agenda, and it's learning to lie to you.
A dungeon crawler where your map is the central mechanic — and the antagonist. It starts accurate, then begins omitting things, then actively misleads you. The only way forward is learning to read between its lies.
Convergence
A co-op game where you hold your partner's map in a world that's falling apart around you.
A co-op game built on asymmetric information. You can see where your partner needs to go, but not where you are. They can see where you are, but not where they need to go. Communication is the core mechanic.
Dueling Decks
A two-player card game where your deck is your life force — every upgrade brings you closer to death.
A card game where strengthening your deck depletes it. Your cards are your health, your resources, and your win condition — so every upgrade is also a sacrifice. The tension between power and survival is the entire game.
