Moonlight Games is an independent game developer started by three friends from Kalamazoo, MI in 2015. We’re all lifelong gamers, and after years of talking about how great it would be to make our own game, we decided it was time to put up or shut up and got to work.
Engineering, Design
A lifelong gamer, Travis is a man who still believes the 486 Computer was the best gaming system ever made. Travis majored in Computer Science at Kalamazoo College and has been a software developer since 2007. After years of talking about how cool it would be to make a video game, Travis finally started creating his own games in 2012. He convinced Matt to join in, and Moonlight Games was born (although it would take them a couple years to decide on a name). They brought Fish in shortly after and they’ve been plugging away ever since. Travis is the engine that drives Moonlight Games, handling all the engineering and art, as well as working on game design. He also keeps everyone else focused and working, which can be a truly Herculean task at times.
Favorite Games: Ninja Gaiden (NES), Privateer (PC), Fallout Series
Writing, Design
Matt has always loved video games, but as a youth he wasted countless hours outside playing “sports”. As an adult, he’s realized the error of his ways and is attempting to make up for lost time by playing as many games as possible. By day, Matt works for a tech-focused Economic Development Organization. At Moonlight Games, Matt handles the writing, creating the storylines and characters, as well as assisting with game design. His master plan for Moonlight Games is to create games so interesting that they will prevent the youth of today from wasting their time running around outside.
Favorite Games: Mega Man 2 (NES), TIE Fighter (PC), Metroid Prime (Gamecube)
QA, Design
A utility worker by day and lover by night, Fish is the head of QA and a jack of all trades at Moonlight Games. Fish has helped with some writing, game design, and even worked a bit on art, but it’s his love of taking things apart and putting them back together that has made him an ideal tester. Fish worked a ton of crappy jobs before finding his calling and settling down, and always had video games to help him get through the day. Now, he gets to help make everything coming out of Moonlight Games the best it can be, which is a pretty great feeling.
Favorite Games: River City Ransom (NES), Final Fantasy Tactics (PS), Mass Effect (PS)
