Who is Nat20?

About Me

I am a game developer based in the Bay Area of central California dedicated to designing interwoven mechanics paired with narrative design. I have a burning passion for game development, design, and artistic direction.

I am working to establish a game development LLC, through which I dream of releasing a variety of games, ranging from tabletop to video games. I am currently writing the Cast Handbook for players for my current project, Dreamland 2d6, with the Director's Handbook for the game master waiting in the shadows.

I aim to release content which focuses on immersive storytelling enriched by player agency and decision making. This will be supplemented with systems, mechanics, and other methods of player interaction to make them feel like their choices make a difference in the world, societies, and the very outcome of the game.
