Hi, I'm Jan!
I design and code digital experiences and smart software.

Featured Games
Having started making games in 2005, I'm finishing up my Master of Arts in Game Design at Cologne Game Lab. Working in all production disciplines, I can make a door. Some of my favorite working concepts and projects:
Fey: Distant Daydream
UpcomingA mystery adventure with authentic Retro 3D graphics. To be released in 2024 for PCs and Steam Deck.
Tea Shop
A first person mystery horror adventure about unraveling a ghost town's past and coping with the happenings.
A Breathtaking Flight

Featured Projects
I freelanced since 2011, doing branding, print, photography, video, motion graphics, web design, and more, and eventually full-stack development. I do a little bit of everything, but I'm usually found in high-impact roles. Some of my more notable or recent projects:
