About
I build things
from scratch.
I'm jeff. I run Grid Games - a studio I started with my brother Joey. We build games we actually want to play. Setting the vision, strategic execution, programming, tinkering, the late-night debugging session. This is my passion.
Before Grid Games, I co-founded Ethereum. That chapter taught me a lot about building from scratch, but games have always been my real passion.
This site is where I collect my thoughts, showcase what we're building, and reflect on the craft of making things.

Building ASTRA with Claude
What happens when you pair a game designer's vision with an AI that can actually write code? Total creative freedom.

I built a roguelike dungeon crawler that runs in your terminal. ASCII graphics, procedural maps, and a sci-fi setting. Written in C++ together with Claude.
