About Me

Hello, my name is Ben Beary, and I am an indie developer. I have a BFA in Digital Media Arts from San Jose State University. My journey started in high school, where I learned coding languages like JavaScript and C#, alongside art programs such as Photoshop, Illustrator, and Blender. In college, I continued to expand my knowledge of Game Design, honing my skills in gameplay programming, UI/UX design, world building, and creating polished player experiences.

I have experience in designing levels, scripting mechanics, creating audio, 3D modeling, and managing full production pipelines for multi-scene projects. What I enjoy most is the awkward part of development, where a problem has no obvious answer yet and it takes a few odd ideas and a lot of stubbornness to find one. Working through those moments, and leaving behind something the rest of the team can actually build on, is the part of making games I keep coming back to.
