About the developer

Mikey is the solo developer handling design, writing, and production across every project. Before founding Mikey of Legend, he spent close to two decades in community management, from startups to AA and AAA game studios, experience that now shapes how the studio builds in public and treats its audience as part of production rather than the end of it.

FAQ

Quick answers for press, streamers, curators, and anyone covering the studio.

Where does the name "Mikey of Legend" come from?

It's a play on "the man, the myth, the legend."

Why transmedia instead of just making games?

The novels and games feed each other. A novel builds out the world and characters in depth, and the game lets people step into it. Neither one is the "main" version; they're both part of the same canon.

What can streamers and Let's Players do with your games?

You're free to monetize videos and streams of my games, including ad revenue and sponsorships. Just don't claim you made the game, and a link back to the store page or my socials is always appreciated.

Are you taking pitches, collabs, or submissions?

I'm open to hearing pitches for collabs, especially from other indie devs or artists working in similar spaces. Reach out through the press contact and tell me what you have in mind.

What's the release timeline for SASS?

SASS is currently in production. No firm release date yet, so follow the devlog or socials for updates as things get closer.

Can journalists or curators get a review copy or build?

Yes, use the request form on this page and select review copy request. Include your outlet and a deadline if you have one.

Is Mikey of Legend hiring or looking for team members?

Right now the studio runs on me plus a small group of interns and contractors. I'm not actively hiring, but I'm always happy to hear from people who want to help build the world of SASS.

Can I use your logos and art in coverage?

Yes, for editorial coverage like articles, videos, and streams. For anything commercial or beyond straightforward coverage, email press@mikeyoflegend.com first.
