Summit County roots. Worlds of possibility.
Worlds.
Widgets.
Wild ideas.
I build games and tools shaped by the mountains, a lifelong friendship, and a shared love of gaming. A lot of them started with “what if?”

Killer Cows From Space!
2D defense platformerI’m prototyping a game where a ten-year-old named Jenny has to fend off alien Bovinoids and Gummyoids. The trap-setting takes its cue from Home Alone on Sega. Jenny can craft her traps with electricity, ice, and fire.

Mountain roots.
A few different habitats.
Gray Wolf Interactive
Exploration, atmosphere, and the joy of figuring things out. Independent games built around worlds worth wandering through.
Gray Wolf Labs
Code meets the physical world. Electronics, sensors, automation, and the occasional idea that requires a soldering iron.
Beyond the blueprint
Creative coding, visual experiments, photography, and whatever happens when art and science share a workbench.

Trippendicular
Active developmentTrippendicular grew out of my original 2D Quantum particle editor. I gave the particles sinusoidal motion along their radial axis, and the result reminded me a little of Battery in Windows Media Player. I wanted to see where that would lead.
I brought the C++/DirectX prototype into Unity, where you can shape the flow and save your own effects.

Trippendicular
Active developmentA hands-on visualizer inspired by Windows Media Player, with configurable flow fields, interactive seeders, and a runtime editor.
I created the original concept and flow-field model, designed the system, and carried the project into Unity. Recent extensions include AI-assisted implementation.

The Silence Between the Stars
R&D / prototypeMass Effect meets Ocarina of Time. I’m designing a sci-fi adventure where Selene and her dog Cosmo explore distant worlds and uncover puzzle-filled temples.
I’m developing the game’s direction and experimenting with how Space Graphics Toolkit and MapMagic 2 can work together.

MeditateVR
VR prototypeI started MeditateVR as a way to take a virtual vacation from the couch. My Unity experiments range from quiet places to spend time to travel on the scale of a universe.

Tommyknockers
Early Access / development pausedColorado gold fever meets a very long night. Protect the gold and survive the creatures lurking around the mine.
I was the sole developer. Avery gave me occasional feedback.

The Skinwalker Investigations
Early Access / development pausedA survival-horror VR project set around a mysterious Colorado ranch. Built around atmosphere, exploration, and the unsettling feeling that something is watching.
I was the sole developer. Avery shared occasional feedback during development.

Game conceptAn enormous adventure at a tiny scale. A familiar mountain landscape becomes a world of hidden societies, unexpected allies, and very large wildlife.
Avery and I first imagined this world together.

Gameplay, interfaces, tools, and the systems that connect them. Each project’s notes explain the work, its foundations, and its current stage.
My project notes describe what I built, which third-party tools I used, and where AI helped with implementation.
Creative tools & runtime state
Trippendicular’s runtime editor includes saved effects, undo/redo, configurable seeders, and separate app/session controls. I directed and integrated the recent UI and state-management extensions, which include substantial AI-assisted implementation.

ArduinoRaspberry PiC# / .NETSensors04 / Our mountain roots
Two friends.
One mountain home.
A world of ideas.
Summit County, Colorado
Avery and I played hockey together in middle school in Summit County. We brought the same curiosity to games that we had exploring the mountains around us, and that friendship grew into Gray Wolf Interactive.
In eight years of running Gray Wolf together, The Colorado Trail was the only game Avery and I built together.
Our original vision was to create emotionally resonant, replayable experiences and entertaining escapes from reality. That still feels like a good reason to get out of bed. Even on a powder day. Usually.
I’m carrying that work forward with Gray Wolf Interactive, Gray Wolf Labs, and a wider collection of creative experiments. Summit County is still home.
Remembering Avery ↓
The original Gray Wolf Interactive mark. A little piece of the studio’s history, carried into its next chapter.
Part of our story. Always.
In memory
of Avery
Co-founder. Best friend.
Part of the heart of Gray Wolf.
Avery struggled with depression. I want to acknowledge what he was going through as part of remembering my friend.
Avery passed away on May 13, 2026. I miss him in the work we shared and in the time we spent gaming, skiing, and watching The Simpsons. I miss playing hockey with him and cheering on the Avs together.
Gray Wolf began with the two of us: a shared mountain home, a love of games, and more ideas than we could possibly fit into one lifetime. As I continue building, I want this place to hold onto that history. Avery will always be part of Gray Wolf’s story.
