ABOUT
Hello, I’m Alex and I am a Software Engineer / Games Developer based in the United Kingdom.
I’ve been working across various industries and companies since 2017. From television to virtual reality to games.
In my spare time I like to develop games, it started when I was young and I made my own Mario Levels in Lunar Magic. After I graduated I started to develop mobile and JavaScript games. Then as I got more experienced I decided to pursue a project with a bit more depth.
Inspired by other one man teams across the indie space I went ahead with Formido Games. My game design inspiration stems from game series such as Silent Hill, Half-Life, Persona and Animal Crossing, as well many RPGMaker titles.
My background is in programming rather than art, so I picked up some basic pixel art along the way. My favourite aesthetic are those old pseudo-3D beat ’em up type games such as Ninja Turtles, Scott Pilgrim and more recently River City Girls.
This space is dedicated to my game dev hobby endeavours.

5 random facts:
- My favourite cuisine is Indian food.
- I had a lifeguard qualification (it expired in 2012…).
- I support Wolverhampton Wanderers.
- The first games I ever played we’re Pokemon Blue on GameBoy Color and Crash Bandicoot 2 for the PS1
- My favourite gigs I’ve attended are The Prodigy, Birmingham 2018 and Paul McCartney, Glastonbury 2022
