Project for NaNoReNo 2015, I was the programmer. Our group had a 1 month deadline, but ultimately the project never got very far.

Sequel to Detective Butler. Help Butler and Gilligan solve a string of serial murders on their university campus. Although I have a lot of personal attachment to this project, and I learned a lot making it, it's on hold because it's not economically viable right now.

Attempted a project for Ludum Dare, the theme Connected Worlds. Idea was there were two worlds: the world of a story, and the world of its author, and you would make choices that influence both. Dropped due to large scope and small time limit.

My first original release. Nominated for Best EVN Drama in 2013.

Parody of Umineko EP8 but inspired by semi-true events. Final entry in my fan-game series, and homage to the /seacats/ community which gave me a year of fun memories and the pseudonym Kinjo Goldbar.

Prototype for Seacats EP3. An interactive escape-room game, simulating the locked room from Umineko EP6.

Fully interactive Umineko fan-game. Play as Erika, navigate the island, interrogate suspects, and potentially solve the mystery (or die trying).

Subverts Umineko by making untrue theories the reality. Strong emphasis on locked room mysteries.
