I make music games you can play, watch and share — and the tech that turns every run into a video. Before games: a decade of interactive web, WebGL and data visualisation.

Marble Music

A marble falls, every bounce is a note. Levels are built from MIDI, played in perfect sync and rendered to 4K video — the format behind the “marble music” clips all over short‑form feeds. Formerly Beat Bounce.

Note Bounce

Real sheet music, laid out in 3D. Glowing balls land on every note in time, so you read the score while you hear it — then export the whole thing as a sheet‑music video.

  • Learn to read music
  • Import any MIDI
  • Video export up to 4K

RingLoop

A rhythm game built out of loops you can see. Every ring carries one instrument and a comet lights each note as it plays. Clear a ring and it joins the mix — by the end you hear the whole arrangement, and watch it turn.

  • 30+ loops
  • On‑device synth
  • Offline video render

Time Miner

A focus timer that is also a city builder. While you work, your miner works: every focused minute becomes stone, glass and iron, and the city you build is made of time you actually spent.

  • City builder
  • No ads, no streak anxiety

Melodies Run

Where the music games started: a runner on a track of piano tiles, where every step is the next note of the song. Third‑person, first‑person, zigzag and piano‑tiles modes, plus a level editor with MIDI import.

  • MIDI‑driven levels
  • 130 instruments

Before games

A decade of
interactive web

I studied physics, then moved into design and code. Dashboards, data‑viz, WebGL experiments and apps used by millions came first — the games grew out of that.

  1. Turner · This Is Not a Game: The Game

    Built Samantha Bee’s civic‑engagement trivia game and its backend for the 2018 US midterms — React Native, Node, Docker on AWS, load‑tested for a TV‑sized launch. Covered by The Verge, Wired and Rolling Stone.

  2. Public‑sector apps, at scale

    Designed and built iOS and React Native apps and web dashboards for large Turkish public institutions — millions of users, under NDA.

  3. Mobile Action · Senior web developer

    Redesigned the app‑intelligence dashboard, migrated it to Vue and rebuilt the public site.

  4. TV & social analytics

    Real‑time TV‑ratings interfaces and a social analytics dashboard over 20 million entries a day — D3, canvas and a lot of charts.
