Tag, you're it

You’re It Games is my new independent game studio. The name comes from my initials, T.A.G., and from the oldest multiplayer game there is.

Right now I’m working on two games:

• A 3v3 online ranked elemental knockout game. Pick an element, team up and knock the other side off the arena.
• A cozy, heartfelt single-player platformer.

I’m also planning some small mobile games along the way.

How I’m making games: yes, with AI

I want to be upfront about this from the very first post: I’m using AI to help build these games, in every part of the process. That includes code, art, design, writing, and the studio itself. This website and the You’re It Games logo were made with AI help too.

I’m a small studio, and AI tools let me move from an idea to something playable far faster than I could on my own. Every decision about what goes into the games is still mine, and so is the responsibility for how they turn out. I’ll keep being open in this devlog about where and how I use AI.

Looking for an artist

AI helps me prototype, but I want the final art to have a real person’s hand in it. I’m actively looking for an artist to help create assets for these games. If that sounds like you, or you know someone, please email hello@youreitgames.com with a link to your portfolio.

What’s next

I’ll post progress, art and behind-the-scenes notes here as things come together. If you want to hear about playtests first, sign up for updates below.
