About Me!

Hello! My name is Michael, online alias Jacko, a young Game Developer in New York. Over the past few years, I spent countless hours creating and designing video games to my liking in order to broaden my experience and capabilities.

My main roles include:

  • Pixel/2D Art
  • UI/UX Design
  • Graphic Design
  • Game Design
  • Sound Design
  • I work with these programs:

  • Construct 3
  • Godot
  • Blender
  • Visual Studio Code
  • Aseprite

  • Over the past 2 years, I spent my time at a trade school learning completly how to create games, when it comes to code, art, and audio. I call myself an Indie Game Developer because I love to work on projects either by myself or in a small team. Most of my work is with teams, but stuff like Broken Tavern are my most proud pieces of work because I get more satisfaction from making games myself.
