Meet the Dev Team
Shattered Paradise is crafted by a small indie team.
Every system, line, sound and pixel is shaped by passion.
Javier Paradinas
Plays the bamboo flute and wants a Border Collie.
Javier runs the whole thing, juggling design, writing, and production. The team suspects he runs on Mango Locos.
Hayden Murray
Lives for over-complicated skill trees.
Hayden keeps the art direction sharp, revising palettes and pixels until they behave. Then he relaxes by designing skill trees that terrify the rest of us.
Lucas Melo
Cannot enjoy things normally.
Lucas dissects mechanics, workflows, and assumptions until they make sense.
Sterling Brownell
Working on an alt-rock album.
Sterling bounces between composing the soundtrack, recording violin lines in one take, and revisiting Halo campaigns like field studies.
Arthur Melo
Shares his home with a guinea pig named Wewi.
Artwa believes mechanics can carry more meaning than dialogue. Most days find him stress-testing.
Enes Gücük
Loves story games.
Enes draws fast, draws well, and refuses to work without eggs nearby. Most concept sheets have at least one yolk joke hidden somewhere.
Igor Ivanović
Loves retro games.
Igor models 3D scenes in full detail while listening to metal at unsafe volumes. Then he tweets about it like nothing happened.
Gareth Murden
Can bake a really good loaf of bread.
Gareth voices the game with a gravitas that makes every line feel important. Between takes, he produces bread.
