About
Hello, my name is Jasper Phillips, and I’m a game addict.
Strategy games in particular are my favorite, and have been since I started with Empire and Star Trek more than 25 years ago. So after dabbling in programming for public corporations or private contracts, and feeling vaguely disatisfied with the corporate politics and dull projects, it seemed natural to try out the game business. I had some money stashed away, so rather than enter the main stream game industry and risk being a wage slave with no creative input I started Brass Golem Games, and set out to build the 4x fantasy game I’ve always dreamed about.
That was several years ago, and I’m still knee deep in code, but I’m beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel. It’s been hard and lonely work, and difficult to keep on task as the money burns away and juicy job oppurtunities float tantalizingly by, but I love it. Probably I won’t strike it rich, but with some luck I’ll make enough money to keep doing it, and maybe even bring in some more people so I can do it faster.
