Before Sidequest Ninja

Chris joined the games industry in 2007 at Jagex, and while there spent many years working on the RuneScape engine, as well as shipping three other titles; amongst other things he was the senior backend developer throughout the development of Chronicle: RuneScape Legends. In 2019 he went part-time to set up Sidequest Ninja, and left Jagex completely in May 2021.

Going Indie

Having built a prototype in 2019, and after taking some time off to get married, production on Hexahedra started in earnest in February 2020. The game was 290% funded on Kickstarter in December 2022, and launched on 16th May 2024. The game also has a Steam demo.
