About

Hi, I'm Frank Force. I've been making videogames for over 30 years. I helped create many successful games and a few very unsuccessful ones. I have held key roles at Certain Affinity, Rooster Teeth, Midway Games, Volition, and several other game studios.

Over that time I also released a wide variety of games and tools to practice my craft and experiment with new ideas. I am also known for winning theOptical Illusion of the Year award by creating The Dual Axis Illusion. As a hobby I have enjoyed writing over 1000 super tiny programs that do all sorts of cool stuff.

My company, Frank Force Games is located in Austin, Texas. We specialize in entertainment software development including games, art, tools, promotional software, and educational resources.
