Cat in Eight Bytes

Hi everyone who has found themselves here! (especially if it's someone I've not bribed with either guilt or actual money)

The brief bio: I make small retro videogames, and they're usually a bit stupid. I apologise in advance.

The longer bio: Having played videogames since they had to be loaded from a cassette tape, I've always been interested in creating my own "interactive experiences". Despite having some rudimentary coding experience (I started learning some stuff as a kid in the early 90s), I never found myself with the patience to create a complete polished project, let alone quit my job and go on a 5 year Kickstarter-backed journey to build my magnum opus. But with the accessibility of itch.io, the creative boundaries of Pico-8, and the scary march of time itself, I've decided to flood this website with things that may just about resemble a videogame. And the truth is, half the time, I'd rather play a 30 minute game about trying to find your housekeys or something, as opposed to a AAA 80 hour RPG.
