Things we've worked on
Golden-age air traffic landing game
Cleared to Land is a 1950s-styled air traffic game for iOS. Players guide planes, helicopters and specialty aircraft to the right landing zones, time their approaches and keep a busy pattern moving without a collision. We designed it, drew the art, built the game loop and shipped it to the App Store, with an Android version in progress.
Gamified dog-spotting mobile app
DroolFinder is a gamified iOS and Android app for dog spotting. Users photograph dogs they meet, the app identifies the breed, turns the photo into a collectible AI-generated sticker, records the spot and builds a Dogdex around rare finds, challenges and social discovery.
Native macOS clipboard history app
Ultimate Paste is a native macOS clipboard history app we built and sell as a one-time $5 download. It keeps copied text, links, code, colours, SVG, files, images and screenshots in a local searchable library, with quick paste, a notch shelf, source app context, retention controls and sensitive-content detection.
Global news network at scale
News.net is a global news network of more than 110,000 localised sites, from suburb level up to continent, all running on a single heavily customised WordPress platform. We built the ingestion, classification, syndication, media pipeline and elastic infrastructure that lets one central hub feed and coordinate every site.
Official website for the Aurelia framework
Aurelia is a long-running open-source JavaScript framework, and aurelia.io is its front door: the page a developer reads before deciding whether to try it. We rebuilt that site to look like the framework it represents, hold the search ranking the old site had built over years, load fast, meet accessibility standards, and stay safe and simple for the team to keep current. It is built with Aurelia 2 itself and prerendered, so search engines and first paint both get a complete page.
Family-first hotel discovery platform
Hotels for Kids is an independent, Australian-made directory that rates hotels on family-fit, not star rating. Every stay is scored across five family pillars and broken down into the practical detail parents actually book against: pool depth, cot policy, family rooms, food flexibility and how easy the location is with young kids.
Australian review platform
Reviewey is a proof-backed review product for Australian businesses and customers. It turns reviews into a two-way record tied to a job, not a drive-by comment.
Hyperlocal advertising marketplace
Yardvertising helps advertisers rent local frontage: yards, fences, windows, shopfronts and other everyday spaces that usually sit outside standard media buying.
Council minutes search and summaries
Minutes Radar turns council meeting minutes into searchable local intelligence: plain-English articles, decisions, projects, issues and council views.
AI bedtime story platform
YawnTales is a bedtime content product that uses AI for story generation, safety classification, narration and contextual music, so families can create personalised stories, affirmations and meditations with stronger guardrails around the output.
Satire publication and social distribution platform
VanFLIP is a satire news publication in the vein of The Betoota Advocate, The Onion and Clickhole. We designed the look and feel, then built a custom publishing and social distribution layer over WordPress: stories publish to the site and out to Facebook and Instagram in one move, and an AI reel studio turns each story into social-ready video, quotes and carousels.
Conveyancing publication and platform
Australian Conveyancer is a long-running industry magazine that needed to move from print into a web publication. We took the brand from sketches to a working design system, then built the site on WordPress with security in mind and grew it in stages.
Tongue-in-cheek Q&A platform
AskBad is an anonymous Q&A platform built as the anti-Yahoo! Answers, where the worst answers are the ones that win. The concept is comedy, the build is not: it inverts the usual reputation system so the most confidently wrong reply earns the karma, badges and a place in the Hall of Shame, with a full moderation, reporting and appeals layer underneath. It runs on a lean Firebase back end with a server-rendered Aurelia 2 front end.
