Short Form Lizard


A gameplay screenshot where a HUD indicator reads '42 seconds'. A shark fin on the left side points to 'Stand', with other unselected options 'Hit' and 'Double Down' are available. Another shark fin holds up to the camera a styrofoam cup with water, which covers the majority of the screen.

Card Shark

Card Shark is an alt-control game for the Lever Up! Game Jam (that I also helped run a little bit), and incidentally is my first game ever shown at both the MAGFest Indie Arcade and Wonderville. It was made in the Godot game engine, and built to support a custom Adafruit Playground controller.

If you're interested in playing Card Shark, the original and gamepad versions of the game are available for free on itch.io.
