About | ZachJamesGames

Hi hello, I'm Zach!

By day, I am a Senior User Interface/User Experience Designer for a medical software company in Cleveland Ohio, and by night I am a freelance Game Developer. I love designing systems, working within a ruleset, making and playing games, and creating Dope Stuff™!

I have been making games in the mobile games industry for over 7 years and have 5 years of experience in User Interface and User Experience Design. I am mostly focused on art direction and design work, but also have some minor, self-taught experience with HTML/CSS, SASS, and C#. If you would like to see more about my credentials, please visit my LinkedIn page.

I am currently developing SHAKE IT UP! Dice™ and Hard Rock Dice Party™, two "sister" games focused on creating exciting new gaming experiences centered around a unique invention of playing card faces engineered to fit on a set of 9 six-sided dice. You can read more about this deck of dice and the games we make here.

Please feel free to contact me* with any questions, comments, concerns, jokes, insults, trivia, or opportunities here.

* Do NOT contact me about anything related to the "Metaverse", I am uninterested in Zuckerberg's desperate multi-billion dollar attempt to reinvent all interactive media but worse and tied to the capitalist hellscape.

* Additionally, do not contact me about NFTs, blockchain, cryptocurrency, AI "art" generators, or other tech-bro nonsense. I am not interested in and I am morally opposed to these topics. All of these "tools" are built from stolen art and these "nonfungible goods" are scams. No "rational viewpoints", mental gymnastics, or novelty experiences can avoid this fact. Real people's lives and careers are/have been negatively impacted by this theft/scamming. Value artists as real people. If you support this stuff, kindly go somewhere else.
