The story
Why these games exist
A wisp is a faint light that leads you through the dark — never blinding, just enough to find the next step. That’s the kind of game I want to make.
I’m 43, a father of two, with a full-time job. I build these in the margins of the day — early mornings, late evenings, the quiet hour after the house finally falls asleep. Wisploft is that late-night loft.
For years “build your own game” lived on a list of things I’d get to someday. Time was the wall: between work and family, there was never a clean stretch long enough to learn everything a game needs.
That changed when I started building alongside AI — Codex and Claude Code as my pair-programmers. They don’t make the games for me; they let me move at the speed of my ideas instead of the speed of my free time. A mechanic I’d have shelved for lack of hours now gets prototyped before midnight.
So I keep the scope small and the craft high. Each game is something I’d want my own kids to play: calm, honest, no dark patterns, no endless feeds — a little light to follow for a while, then set down. Made by one person, a little at a time, and finished.
