TOM FRANCIS
REGRETS THIS ALREADY

Hello! I'm Tom. I'm a game designer, writer, and programmer on Gunpoint, Heat Signature, and Tactical Breach Wizards. Here's some more info on all the games I've worked on, here are the videos I make on YouTube, and here are two short stories I wrote for the Machine of Death collections.

   
 

Proteus

“I was fairly sure I wouldn’t like it, because the screenshots don’t look all that inviting. But it turns out that all of Proteus’s magic happens in the three things a screenshot is missing: motion, music, and interaction.”

Played Proteus yesterday, then again last night, and finished it. An extraordinary experience. It’s half game and half song, and the feeling of crafting music through the way you explore a shifting and beautiful world is wonderful, totally unlike anything else I’ve played.
