Hey! I’m BenjaTK (j pronounced like the h in here). I make tiny freeware videogames and publish them on itch.io. I’ve also made some addons for Godot that you can find on my GitHub.

I’ve been doing this for about 4 years now, and it’s been a blast (though not without its struggles). Here are some highlights:

Terraforma

Probably my favorite game of mine.

In Terraforma you build a world out of tiles that generate points based on the other tiles around them.

Made for the Kenney Jam 2022, I think the concept was pretty solid which is why I think it worked that well. It also made me realize that the market for idle games in itch.io is HUGE, most views I got were from the idle tag.

I even got contacted by 2 websites to publish the game, one of which didn’t go through but the other one, CrazyGames, did. This one not only got me a different public, but also gave me some of the funniest “feedback” I’ve received (including some insults in Russian).

Detective Paws and Lilypaw Games

This one was made for the Cozy Autumn Game Jam 2023. It was my second time working on a team, with Kaboppel and Kris. It’s a short detective point-and-click adventure about figuring out the biggest mystery of all: where leaves go in autumn.

I’m really really proud of this one. Not only is the cast of characters great, I also have never been super confident working on teams; except for this one. It was a great experience making it, so great it sparked a studio: Lilypaw Games.

Though development in Lilypaw Games HQ has been slow, we have been working on a bunch of prototypes together, and can’t wait to share them.

Gaea

A procedural generation addon for Godot 4, including support for 2D and 3D, chunk loading, a lot of customization, and more.

Some of the different types of terrain Gaea allows making.

I don’t really remember why I made this. I was bored ig. But it skyrocketed into something much bigger than I would’ve expected. It got featured in YouTube videos, has almost 1k stars and has been constantly growing since I made it.
