Whois
Hello World! I am Benjamin Thomas Blodgett, a human.
I greatly enjoy playing and creating games; most notably: puzzle games.
The first game I levels I designed were for SuperTux for my brothers and sisters at home.
I started programming on my TI-84 when I was 14, and took my first programming class when I was 17.
I moved on to creating and sharing custom content for The Sims.
After playing Valve's Portal, I fell in love with puzzle games, and picked up Valve's SDK and began creating content of my own.
Years later now, I have now have many friends in the Source Community, and am part of many different projects.
In 2019, I began working for Supra Games on new Supraland content. We shipped Supraland Six Inches Under in 2022, which was my first shipped game. It has been a great time, and I've learned so much about fun in the process. In my spare time I've been working on my own puzzle game currently titled Daakorun. I love that I get to work full time on creating fun game content that players really connect with.
On a personal note, I am married to a lovely woman, and we are parents to fraternal twins plus one. I've entered a new realm of sleep deprivation :)
