About Headfizz

An independent game studio from Ireland, making games for the bit of the evening that is yours.

I'm James Joy, the developer behind Headfizz. I've spent years making games, from browser puzzles and odd little experiments to commissioned projects featuring Gumball, Ben 10, Steven Universe and LEGO Ninjago.

It started with Flash games like Bearboy and the Cursor, where your mouse pointer is the hero's best friend, and King Rolla, about a sleepy king evicting sheep from his castle. Those led to pitching and building games for Cartoon Network, then a long run of HTML5 games for Lagged.com.

Now I'm bringing that experience into a new set of original games for PC and console, starting with DECKED, a skateboarding game about expressive tricks and places worth exploring on a board.
