Kyle Staves studied Game Design at the University of Advancing Technology, later working as a programmer on various independent game projects. In adulthood, he was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder after experiencing increasingly frequent psychotic and manic episodes.

Today, Kyle lives as a house-husband with his wonderful, infinitely supportive wife, focusing on low-stress activities to help manage his condition. Recently, he began working on small, bite-sized projects to re-engage his creative and technical skills—taking the first steps toward returning to his career as a gameplay programmer.

This site documents Kyle’s journey as he uses the tools available to rebuild his life, one project at a time.
