Sep 2016 - Present
Elden Pixels is an indie game developer that was founded in 2016 by a group of industry professionals that got together to make a game. The successful release of Alwa’s Awakening which was self-published led to us to being recognized as just not a small developer but one of the more interesting upcoming indie studios right now. As a CEO and Game Designer my job includes a lot of different tasks. First and foremost I take care of the day-to-day business and making sure everyone at the office has everything they need to to their work. I handle stuff like legal, staff, economy and marketing while still trying to find some time do properly design games. Show less
