I am a game developer and the creator of Core Decay. Here I share my thoughts on game development, philosophy, and free software — feel free to reach out through Matrix or email.

Biography
I was born in Sweden, and grew up in the countryside of Västra Götaland in the southwestern part of the country. Much of my early life was spent outdoors in the Swedish forests, but I have also had an interest in technology for as long as I can remember.
I first started exploring software and game development in my teenage years. I was an avid reader of computer and programming books, and started getting into game development by making my own content for games such as Age of Empires. I eventually began studying for a career as a game developer, created smaller games of my own, and pursued adjacent skills in programming and computing.
Eventually I adopted a more cautious perspective on technology, and became more critical of the way the internet and social media had begun to shape society. Although still aiming for a career in game development, it became less about the technical art and more about using games as a medium to explore philosophical thought.
In 2015 I moved from Sweden to the United States, and have since then been living in the Pacific Northwest together with my wife and two dogs. In late 2017 I started development of what would become Core Decay. It began as a hobby project I worked on in my spare time, and a few years later I entered a collaboration with 3D Realms and Slipgate Ironworks to scale up development with a full team.
I have kept a strong interest in philosophy and sociology, and how it intersects with technology and the internet. I am a strong advocate of free software and decentralization, and I set up this website mainly as a way to share my thoughts on these topics – in particular, check out my article on the free internet!
