ABOUT ALEC MCNAMARA
I want to make games that are both fun and accessible to a wide range of gamers, but are also unconstrained by genre formulas. I have a particular interest in games whose core mechanics are not just unconventional, but that create player experiences exclusive to digital games. I love the idea of a someone playing one of my games and thinking,\"I just experienced something that I have never before experienced from a film, a book, a podcast, a theme park, or any other creative medium.\" Some of my biggest design inspirations in this regard include Braid, Portal, The Legend of Zelda: a Link to the Past, Fez, The Unfinished Swan, and Monument Valley. I am at my best in environments in which I am given a voice, and in which I can feel pride and ownership over the company\'s products. Aside from designing games, I also have experience in a wide variety of game development disciplines including coding, usability, 2D/3D art, and team management.
