I worked as the lead designer and sometimes-producer on Stubbs, which earned a handful of tongue-in-cheek awards, a Developers Choice nomination, and cult-classic status.

We made Stubbs with a tiny passionate team. Check out the full credits on MobyGames: https://www.mobygames.com/game/xbox/stubbs-the-zombie-in-rebel-without-a-pulse/credits

In 2020 Aspyr re-released Stubbs for all three game consoles, and resurrected the Steam version of the game. Our studio FarBridge provided technical and deep-lore expertise for the re-release. You can purchase the game from Steam, Aspyr's website, or classic discs from Amazon:

Disney's Guilty Party

The family-friendly murder mystery!

Released for Nintendo Wii in 2009
Rated E for Everyone

Publisher: Disney Interactive

I was the game director on Guilty Party, which smashes together the concepts of a party videogame with a mystery-themed boardgame. Yeah it's like if Mario Party and Clue had a baby.

Guilty Party was the best-reviewed game Disney made for the Nintendo Wii, and our crazy talented team came together to make something new, unique, and super special.

Rated T for Teen

Shortly after Guilty Party we began prototyping concepts based on Marvel Comics characters and the forthcoming Avengers film. The result was a giant multi-game crossover, including Avengers Initiative, Avengers Alliance, and a "hub app" called Marvel XP.

I worked as studio creative director during pre-production, and as the narrative director for the publishing team through production and launch. The credits aren't up yet, but you can check out the Avengers Initiative MobyGames page: https://www.mobygames.com/game/marvel-avengers-initiative

Sadly both Avengers games I worked on aren't in the app store anymore. Read more about them:
