Heyo! I'm Mors, a game designer and programmer from Turkey, and one half of Distant Illusions. I love making polished, juicy games that feel just right.
I've been making games for over 15 years, starting with Game Maker 5 as a kid, gradually expanding to other engines and shipping titles across various platforms, including the Nintendo Switch. These days I'm probably best known for my pastviralfan projects, as well as for always pushing GameMaker beyond its limits.
It all started with making terrible games as a kid, sharing them on online forums. Over time, people actually started liking them. Some even went viral! Which made me realize, hey, this could become something more than just a hobby!
Along the way, I convinced the folks at Opera to pay me to make some games for their Opera GX gaming browser. One of those games, Operius, went on to become the browser's built-in offline game. That later evolved into Operius DX, which I self-published on Steam and Nintendo eShop, handling all the porting and the soul crushing bureaucracy myself.
But this is just the beginning. I'm always experimenting with ideas, and I've got so much more fun things to cook! Hope you'll be along for the ride! Hell yeah!!!
I have two blogs actually! To keep up with the progress on my projects and whatnot, you should head to the Distant Illusions Blog. But I also have a blog here, for thoughts that are too long or complex for throwaway social media posts.
Here's some cool stuff I found on this magical place called "teh internetz" xD
I'm always available for new opportunities and would love to hear what you've got in mind! So, if this is a serious inquiry, feel free to send me an email!
