Echelon Create is an independent entertainment studio I founded — small team, big catalog. We're building a slate of narrative and strategy games across a handful of original worlds, sharing engines and production tools under the hood so a small studio can credibly ship a lot of titles without cutting corners on any one of them.

Available now: Doc Tommy: The Vig — a mob trivia game dressed up as a debt collection — is my first shipped title.

Coming next:
• Doc Tommy: 24HR Dental — Dental practice management sim with a mob-adjacent story underneath.
• Mr. Crale — Literary/anthology trivia game, classic-TV atmosphere.
• Earl's Court — Western-horror cinematic trivia game.
• Takeover — Turn-based grand-strategy game.
• Get Right Motel — Motel management sim.
• It's a Long Way to the Top — Heavyweight-boxing career trivia game.
• Biassou — Narrative command/strategy game set in 1790s Spanish Florida.
• Barrelhouse — Blues-history bar-conversation encyclopedia game.
• The Way — Node-based travel-strategy game set in the world of the Book of Acts.
• Builder — Turn-based contractor/business strategy sim.
• Pinball Construction Set — Build-your-own-playfield pinball game.

About the author: I'm a family physician in Tampa, Florida, and I've been playing video games since the Commodore 64. My last real stretch of "full-time" gaming was Grand Theft Auto III and EA Sports NCAA Football.
