Description

I'm Matt Sephton (aka gingerbeardman). I first started programming back in the 1980s on Acorn Electron, but really got going on Atari ST around 1990. In late-2023 my game YOYOZO—which is only 39 KB—was featured on Ars Technica's list of "Best Games of 2023" alongside Mario, Zelda, Pikmin and Baldur's Gate 3.
