or, a cautionary tale · no lies, just love
Omari, by his daughter
i'm beautiful

Hey, I'm Omari, or Dred (or Fey if you're OG with it). I've been making games solo since COVID with Unity, Construct, Godot, Defold and every other engine.

Now:

I've prepared a convincing list of reasons
why you should give me money:

  1. My last job in tech went bad. Real bad. Over 10k in unpaid wages and the CEO facing numerous lawsuits kind of bad. It took something that I loved — community building and connection — and made it an exercise in futility. I'm financially gutted, and going all in on game development. No more half measures.

  2. I have a kid & child support payments.

  3. This is what I'm doing now. Full time. All day. Every day. Solo dev life. This is it.

  4. This is a win-win for you. Support a full-time indie dev, and I give you games.

  5. It's a two-way street. If you're in the area, I might buy you lunch.

  6. I need to look good if we go to lunch, so I need better clothes.

  7. When you give me money, I'm obligated to listen to you. I'm like a therapist in that sense.

  8. Be a part of this. Grinding out unique, quality games with a dev who cares.

  9. You're helping keep art, expression, and freedom alive in this age of corporate-mandated NothingNuggets.

  10. Wealth inequality is a real problem. Do your part.

Thank you. You can find my titles:

My daughter did my hair, took the picture, and added the effects. I'm beautiful. If you have a problem with it, (5) is off the table.
