About Us

Fivel and I (Bwendy) have been lifelong friends for as long as I can remember, and while we kept each other in the loop on our creative endeavors, our differences and choice of medium, kept us from officially collaborating. It wasn’t until 2023, when the “stars” aligned for us to make video games together. We believe that our creative differences are what makes us a good team, having both sides of, perhaps, several coins. In 2024, we added another friend, Finni. As we are all Christians, we aspire to create things that glorify God. We want to make a change in this world, and this industry. We hope you join us on this journey.

Bwendy

Programmer, Game Designer

Hey, I'm Brendon! Or as I go online, "Bwendy". I've been making small games in Game Maker Studio 2 since I was 12 years old. Since then, I've solo-developed and released my Steam game, RTS Football. I also accrued some experience in web design and development. As long as I can remember, I've loved stories, and then I loved working in stories to my small games. I've improved at both since then...I hope.

Programmer

Finni

Hi, I'm Finni! I am a programmer who mainly focuses on games and full-stack web development. I have worked in many game engines and have experience in C#, JS, Java, and many other languages. I have been programming games since I was seven years old, and while I find most of my programming goes toward web dev, making games has never ceased to be a special hobby of mine. Over the past decade, I have been a part of three teams and also have created three games of my own. I enjoy obscure and philosophical ideas and often incorporate them into my game design and programming.
