This seems cool and all, but what about our work?
"Would absolutely recommend! [Nunkware] rebuilt our website from the ground up in a thoughtful, brand conscious way and utilizing the best modern approaches. He was dedicated, responsive, and thorough, with great communication. He made sure we were satisfied with results every step of the way and set up our site so we could update and admin it ourselves if he wasn't available for some reason. Regular follow ups & follow through made the experience smooth and a pleasure. Definite thumbs up"
Who is behind Nunkware Digital?
My name is Jesse Jurden, and currently, I'm the only member of Nunkware Digital.
I was introduced to video games at a young age through the original NES. My love for game creation began in middle school with Game Maker 7, but I was encouraged to pursue information technology instead.
After earning my degree in Information Sciences and Technology from Penn State in 2015, I would then work for Vanguard, one of the world's largest financial and investment companies.
Seven years later, the COVID pandemic reignited my passion for game development, convincing me that I wanted to spend more time working on my own game. Although I left my job to focus on game development full-time, I quickly realized I was lacking in game industry knowledge, and I was also met with a variety of mental health challenges.
As a result, I wanted to leverage my existing skillset to help game developers grow while I learn more about the industry. If I can help others achieve their dreams, that's a win in my book.
Why build a software company for game studios of all things?
Video games are driven by passion, and we see time and time again passion fall flat due to poor tooling and management. Video games, at the core, are also computer programs.
Working in traditional software engineering for over ten years, we have seen time and time again communication issues, infrastructure bugs, inefficient software process and documentation, and so much more that hold companies back.
Given constant news of triple-a flops and decreasing consumer satisfaction with games, we could only assume that the tools we use to make games are also holding us back, in the same ways.
We want to take our obsession of code optimization to the game industry because we believe we can really help make the complex stuff simpler. In turn, this will help game developers in a world of increasing scope and expectations.
We believe that the decisions we make should benefit everyone
Transparency
We see so many instances of executives lacking openness, so we want to do better than that. We're only human and we'll make mistakes from time to time, but we will at least make sure you're well informed on what's going on regularly.
Optionality
We believe that more options are better than fewer. We don't want to lock you into a single way of doing things. That's why when we consult with you, we'll make sure to understand your needs before offering a solution.
Efficiency
We believe in making the most of our software tools, but also the time we have working together. If we can automate repetitive tasks and the act of automating it does not take too much time, we may as well do it.
Balance
While we will do our best, sometimes workarounds and redesigns are needed. If we can get your workflows 90% better in 10% of the time, that's a much more effective and realistic goal.
