Yo TIG Sauce!

i'm Matt leaf, from AU>

i'm a dude who does a bunch of stuff, which all tends to be creatively related.

i played games since i was a kid, first console was an atari, then had a NES, but the SNES was really the golden years for me...

i only picked up learning programming recently, but i'm not really sure if i'm ready to make a game yet, or if that's what fascinates me most creatively at this stage. i know that i find learning code a really rewarding and enlightening pursuit at best...

i love games, and love thinking about aspects of games and how they may relate to other projects. for instance, what would it be like to apply a game design to a piece of music? to a novel? i also enjoy the philosophy of game design and many of it's critical texts.

i love play in all its forms, and am keen to become more of a 'worldly' player if that makes more sense, that is, not to limit my playtime to purely screen based activities.

play is at the heart is a very core aspect of what i like about games, but then so is conundra, puzzles, and secrets. Its the hiding and the finding and the figuring out that I love about games. and I think a lot about that spirit is what carries over into my own stuff, at the very least i hope it carries over into future projects...

cheers!
