ABOUT THE GAME

Following the creation of Playback Trauma: The Beach I felt a duty to expand on this universe I, for lack of a better word, skimped on with the first game.  While deciding which project to pursue next, I thought about a girl in real-life I happened to have a crush on and what I would do for her.  This game was modelled from my own thoughts of what I would endure to be with her, with some of my own philosophies on romance thrown into the mix.  Despite this being a game mainly to entertain myself with an interesting story, I managed to delve deeper into the world of Playback Trauma to offer what is (I hope) an interesting story.

ABOUT ME

I'm a game developer based out of New Jersey, and I've been creating games since 2016. I learned how to code while attending Full Sail University, and now I'm on a mission to explore and expand on the world of Playback Trauma.

Along with creating games, I love teaching kids and I am always looking to help others with their gamedev journeys.
