Hi there! I'm Russ!

🧑‍💻 About Me:

• I make games 🕹️ in Godot and tools 🛠️ in Clojure (Babashka)

• 🎮 I'm launching two games in the next few months:

  • Dot Hop (steam, github) is a grid-based puzzle game - simple but challenging, and hopefully not too hard.
  • Dino (steam, github) is a mashup of my jam entries from last year - platformers, some top-down, some beat em up, some overcooked?! I'm molding it into.... something... and launching in Q1!

• My jam games are available on itch.io: russmatney.itch.io

• 🎥 I share weekly devlogs on Youtube, and I stream live-coding on twitch.tv/russmatney

• 🌱 My blog is a meandering org-roam exported mind-garden: russmatney.com

I'm working on games and tools full-time - I want to build up enough support to do this indefinitely, and keep the source open to everyone.

You can support me via:

• Github sponsors
• Patreon

Dot Hop

Dot Hop is a grid-based puzzle game. It started as a PuzzleScript jam game, but I've reimplemented it in Dino to add several themes, more puzzles, and friendlier UX.

Wishlist Dot Hop on steam!

I'm focusing on Dot Hop lately to get my first Steam launch done with a reasonably scoped game. Wish me luck!

Dino

I'm driving towards a full Dino Steam release - wishlist Dino on steam!

Dino started as a Godot monorepo and sandbox for game jams and writing my own addons, but it is transforming into a genre-mashup of sorts.
