About Me

I'm Anthony, a solo indie game developer with a passion for creating immersive and heartfelt gaming experiences.

I've been playing games for as long as I can remember, and many of the ideas behind Highland Hearth come from the games I grew up with.

I spent countless hours building theme parks in RollerCoaster Tycoon, exploring the world of Ragnarok Online, creating sprawling settlements in Banished and Kingdoms Reborn, and losing entire weekends to Terraria. While these games are all very different, they share something I love: they create worlds that feel worth spending time in.

Highland Hearth is my attempt to capture some of those same feelings. The freedom to build a settlement that feels uniquely yours, the satisfaction of watching systems work together, and the stories that emerge naturally as your community grows.

Outside of game development, I work professionally as a software developer. Highland Hearth allows me to combine that technical experience with my love of game design, pixel art, and simulation games into a project that is entirely my own.

Being from Scotland has also had a huge influence on the game. The landscapes, colours, wildlife, and atmosphere of the Highlands have inspired much of the game's visual style and setting.

Get in touch via social media or email me at info@highland-hearth.com for any enquiries, feedback on the game, or just to say hi!

Highland Hearth is developed entirely in my spare time. If you'd like to support development, consider buying me a coffee. Every contribution helps fund artwork, software, and development time.
