Key facts
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.

Games
My studio work centers on original IP, while selected work-for-hire collaborations let me support partner teams with the same design and production lens. Both categories reflect the kind of game development I value and the way I work.
Original IP
The studio's original games are built from the ground up around my own ideas, worlds, and creative direction.
Students Against Spooky Stuff
A cozy, spooky role-playing game about mysteries, friendship, and small-town life, with dozens of neighbors to meet and lots to do. 🪦
Work for hire
I also take on selected work-for-hire engagements, partnering with teams to shape and refine gameplay systems, design pillars, and player experience.
Gravity
Game design work for Scape: a multiplayer climbing game built around precision, tension, and the thrill of a single perfect move.
