About the developers

We're a pair of (very) amateur game developers, brought together by the GMTK Team Finder and the fact both of our names are Owen. 

TallestPurple (he/him) is currently a freelance writer, trying to figure out what to do with a film degree. He'd love to be a game producer some day, so someone please give him a job. You can find him on twitter as @reallifeowen or on Discord @Owen#2352

commarchinin (he/him) is most of a Research Software Engineer. He sees game dev as a fun excuse to program, and mourns that Godot is still missing his cherished lambda functions. You can find him on Discord @Commarchinin#4804
