I make games out of passion.

After a lifetime of playing games, it’s time to start building them. I make my own video games and share everything that happens behind the scenes through the newsletter.

Projects

Things I am building.

Video games remain at the centre, but along the way I also build tools to solve real problems in my own workflow.

Video games

My video games.

I am currently working on three games with very different scopes and rhythms: a small one to learn the entire publishing process, another that needs more development than expected, and my long-term project.

Working title · In design

MyFirstGame

A narrative management and card-based decision game. You have one year to finish and publish your first video game without neglecting your morale, money, or life.

Clicker Hacker

Incremental clicker mechanics with story and events. Manage resources, level up skills, and uncover hidden secrets.

In development. Slowly but surely.

Esports Manager

An esports management game focused on team narrative: contracts, season goals, club culture, and key decision-making during events.

Tools

Tools born from real problems.

Utilities I build to improve my own workflow and that may, over time, become useful to other developers too.

Personal tool · Evolving

trello-sync

A CLI that turns Trello into an operational part of agent-assisted development, keeping the board and repository speaking the same language.

Are We Teaching the Industry to Make Worse Games?

How to Fish surpasses 250,000 players while the success of friend slop and a boring Clicker Hacker prototype force me to reconsider which games we are rewarding.

The GTA VI trailer on Netflix is a masterstroke

The GTA VI trailer will have a six-hour exclusive window on Netflix. It is not a scandal: it is a brilliant marketing move that will get the whole internet talking.

My Shelf · August 2026

This month brings four very different additions: a Steam Machine for relaxed gaming on the couch, a new physical game still waiting to be played, two versions of One Piece Heroines, and a Vi figure joining Jinx to remind me why Arcane stands at the very top of animation.

I rebuilt my website to get back to what matters

One month, 58 commits, a new design, Astro 7, and a migration from Sanity to local MDX—all so the website could support my projects again instead of becoming another endless project.

Who I am

SenseiSoloDev

I was born in 1990 and I've been playing video games since 1994. I started on a monochrome PC running MS-DOS.

Some of the series that have shaped me the most? PC Fútbol, Tzar, Pokémon, Age of Empires, Caesar, Sim City, Zelda, Final Fantasy, Counter Strike… the list is long.

Even though I studied computer engineering and loved games, it’s only now that I’m wearing the indie developer hat.
