About Antony Lavelle
Antony Lavelle is a UK developer who has been developing games his entire adult life - and is fast approaching his 100th released game! Most of his early work was in Flash, and he was one of the first full time employees of Armor Games during the heyday of Flash Games. Over the course of 6 years there, he designed and developed a new game nearly every month. With a few big hits over the years, the game that made him known was 'IndestructoTank!', so when he decided to try out Gameboy coding, his first thought was how well it would work on the platform..
He now works full time as Principal Game Designer for a SEGA studio in England named HARDlight, working on mostly mobile platform games, such as games in the Sonic the Hedgehog series and other famous franchises like ChuChu Rocket. In his spare time he also develops games for fun.
He has future plans for more Gameboy Games, as he loves the platform and its constraints, and loves the community that has grown around it over the last few years.
