HEY, Y'ALL.

I’M

BRANDON.

Look Ma. I Made it!

I like hats. I've worn a few. Below are some projects that helped me learn and grow and smile at the people they entertained — as well as the impact they had on my journey as a creator.

Devil's Bluff

Project Management

Every game dev dreams of creating an original IP. How many fantasize about doing it with a tenth of the initial budget, a fully remote team, and a nine-month development cycle? A lot less, probably. To make this asymmetrical cross-platform survival horror title a reality we did it anyway — and boy-oh-boy, did I learn a lot.

Electronic Gaming Monthly

Editorial Direction

Never meet your heroes, they said. Welp, I've been lucky enough to work for some of the industry's best editorial minds and despite the aforementioned warning, it turns out you can learn a lot running one of gaming's most storied publications.

Quick Hit NFL Football

Game Design

Occasionally, a recruiter calls up and hits you with a doozy. My favorite went a little something like this: "So, hey...want to come help a new company with a non-existent dev team build a product from the ground up to challenge EA Sports' Madden Football with a Live, Web-Based Free-to-Play Product?" Sure. Why not?

NFL 2K Series

Production

It's fair to say that every aspiring game developer just needs someone to give them a chance. As irony (and luck) would have it, my first crack at it was the other way around. The result? An opportunity to help build one of the greatest franchises ever made.

Thanks for stopping by. I'm Brandon, a producer, designer, and editor creature who loves making dope stuff with great people.

Bippity, bloggity, boo.

In the market for random rambles on the things I'm presently pondering? Well, then, dear browsers, you have bumbled and stumbled into the parent load! Get in here, and all that...

OOTO

A Few of My Favorite Things

A seriously outdated film once exclaimed, "You are not your f***ing khakis!" Fair enough, I suppose. That said, I figured a tally of what makes me tick is a great way to know the why behind the guy.

Getting Back in the Game

Sometimes, you just need some space. While it's definitely posed a few challenges, taking a much-need planned sabbatical has managed to renew my passion and perspective in incalculable ways.
