And Yet, We Dream.

A hand-drawn, atmospheric game about dreams, loss, and the things we carry. I planned the whole universe on my own at age 12; I finally brought it to life at 22. I think this kind of dark, psychologically heavy game has never been attempted in Turkey before, and I am extra proud of that.

tipoloji.com

I built it after trying nearly every productivity app in the world and getting nothing out of them. It's a 'tracking' app that lets you manage every area of your life. Tasks, habits, social circle, notes, goals, whatever you've got. Also a place to discover yourself (and others) through typology.

02 / about

the short version.

I like small things
that make you feel big.

I'm an indie developer / entrepreneur who grew up scribbling game and film ideas in the margins of schoolbooks. I work on games and web projects in Turkey that nobody else has tried. If it's wobbly, dark, and a little weird, it's probably mine.

When I'm not tinkering, I'm usually messing with typology or consuming my favorite film/book for the hundredth time.

where i live online.

everybody loves privacy on the internet. i'm the complete opposite. i love sharing everything i do and tracking lots of stuff (slightly acoustic on that aspect) because why not? i have nothing to hide. i love being a human and connecting with other humans.
