Overview

Flap or Die Show is my personal indie project - a unique blend of platforming challenge and dark humor set in a dystopian game show. The game explores themes of survival, entertainment, and the absurdity of reality TV through challenging 3D platforming mechanics. As a solo developer, I handle all aspects of development including gameplay programming, level design, and systems architecture. The project serves as a creative outlet and a way to push my skills beyond client work.
