Hello! My name’s Thom.

I graduated with a first class degree in Games Design at Brunel University in summer 2023.

I’m a passionate gamer and game designer, with an emphasis on writing and designing narrative. My studies taught me how to devise robust rulesets and systems, develop artistic themes, and tie ‘look and feel’ into one. I have a firm grasp of principles that mesh fantastically with two other big hobbies — voiceovers and concept art.

Read a sample of my game screenplays or game design documents, listen to my voiceover demos, or explore my artwork on this page.

I’m confident in my abilities to create something unique, engaging, but most importantly, fun. I believe I know what a player wants, and I know what a designer must do to get them there.

I’m keen to chat about game design and narrative, so do reach out!

I wrote a pilot screenplay for a new, animated TV series that I called ‘Thank the Lucky Stars’. This screenplay was the focus of my degree dissertation.

An ethereal alien called Chance is marooned on Earth after a freak accident and comes to discover that in spite of his new human friend trying to get him back into space, ‘home’ isn’t always a place…it’s sometimes a person.

Take a look at the screenplay and the accompanying series bible below.

These PDF documents show a series of horizontal slices for a level and world I conceived as a part of my degree dissertation.
