Description

Indie dev with a love for bittersweet narratives and complex, boundary-pushing adventures.

History

Early History

It all began with a hobby project: a humble, free visual novel called Sepia Tears, first released on standalone desktop and Android on December 24th, 2013. Afterwards, I created the Scarlet String Studios brand to publish Sepia Tears on Steam in January 2016.

At that point, I began thinking about game development as a serious career option, and I started studying Unity in my spare time. My dream was to create narrative games that push the artistic boundaries of the medium.

By March 2018, I had incorporated Scarlet String Studios and quit my day job to work full-time on Monospaced Lovers.

Present Day, Present Time

As of 2024, Monospaced Lovers is finally ready to launch on PC, PlayStation 5, and the Nintendo Switch.
